Sylvester Stallone gave Rambo fans a look into his character in the fifth instalment of the franchise through a new Instagram post. The actor, who begun shooting for Rambo: Last Blood, last year will see Stallone reprise his role as troubled Vietnam War veteran John Rambo, going against the Mexican cartel. The post features monochrome photos of Stallone in his Rambo avatar with a post-it note attached to the pictures. The note reads, “I came home, but I have never arrived” singed under Rambo. Stallone is all set to unveil the first look of Rambo: Last Blood on Friday at Cannes Film Festival.

The first instalment, First Blood, was directed by Ted Kotcheff and significantly surpassed its $15 million budget with a $125 million theatrical haul. For George P Cosmatos’ sequel, Rambo: First Blood Part II, the film earned over $300 million worldwide. After Rambo III premiered in 1988, the fourth instalment would not release for another two decades.
