Get the Gringo director rumoured for Rambo 5

August 20, 2018 by Gary Collinson

Back in May it was confirmed that Sylvester Stallone will be reprising the role of Vietnam war veteran and killing machine John J. Rambo for a fifth instalment in the action franchise, and now comes word from Geeks Worldwide that Get the Gringo helmer Adrian Grunberg is set to direct.

Rambo V will pick up with Rambo living on a ranch in Arizona, “deeply troubled and wrestling with PTSD as he picks up casual work wherever he can. When long-time family friend and estate manager Maria informs Rambo that her grand-daughter has gone missing after crossing into Mexico for a party, he sets off with her to find the youngster. What ensues is a violent descent into hell as Rambo uncovers a sex-trafficking ring. He teams up with a journalist whose half-sister has also been kidnapped and must deploy all his skills to save the girls and bring down a vicious crime lord.”

In addition to 2012’s Get the Gringo, Grunberg has worked as a second unit director and first assistant director on the likes of Collateral Damage, Man on Fire, Edge of Darkness, Jack Reacher: Never Go Back and Narcos.
