Who knew Rambo could speak multisyllabically?

While out pimping and plugging EX2 at CinemaCon this year, Sly Stallone couldn’t duck the inevitable RAMBO 5 queries. The dude clearly has a ton on his plate right now, with BULLET TO THE HEAD and THE TOMB coming down the lane, but he’s still making time for the iconic John Rambo. Here’s what he told MTV:

“There’s a volcanic eruption [brewing]. The magma of Rambo is coming to the surface. It’s one thing where you lay down the final culmination of your life where you can articulate it, but also act on it where he realizes what his destiny really is. It’s not to be a farmer, it’s not to be obscure; it’s to go out in a blaze of glory in a heroic fashion. But is he really doing it for himself or is he doing it because that’s just his id? That’s who he is.”

And regarding that odd Mexican story we ran last month:

“I like the whole Mexican situation, what’s going on down there. So I’m working on a formula for it right now.”

Crazy. Sly will be 66 this July, as far as the action career goes, has never been busier. He better hurry up and get going on RAMBO 5, I mean, you don’t want to be shooting HGH in your balls past 70. So I hear.
