After years of speculation and rumors, Lionsgate has unveiled the first official concept trailer for RAMBO 6: New Blood, slated for release in 2026. The new chapter in the iconic Rambo series promises an explosive return of Sylvester Stallone as the legendary John Rambo, but with a fresh twist — introducing a new generation of warriors to continue his legacy.
The trailer, released during the 2025 Digital Entertainment Expo, features a mix of classic Rambo intensity and cutting-edge AI-generated concept sequences. The AI trailer shows Rambo returning to his roots, training a young, diverse group of elite operatives in the jungles of Southeast Asia, passing on his brutal survival tactics to a new crop of soldiers. This “new blood” is embodied by John David Washington, who plays Rambo’s protégé, an up-and-coming military strategist with a troubled past.
The trailer opens with a dramatic, digitally-enhanced sequence of Rambo scaling a towering cliff, fighting off hostile forces with his signature bow and arrow. The AI concept highlights some breathtaking action scenes, with Rambo and his team facing off against a new, even more dangerous enemy — an underground syndicate that’s trafficking advanced weaponry and bio-enhanced mercenaries.
The film takes a futuristic twist, combining old-school guerrilla warfare with modern technology. It introduces a villain, The Architect, a character whose motives are shrouded in mystery and who appears to have both technological superiority and a psychological hold over his mercenaries. The trailer teases a showdown between Rambo’s gritty, raw approach to battle and the calculated, high-tech strategies of his enemies.
Sylvester Stallone teased that RAMBO 6 would focus on passing the torch to the next generation while showing how Rambo’s legacy continues to shape the world. The film, directed by Adrian Grunberg (Rambo: Last Blood), brings together Rambo’s survivalist instincts with the high-tech world of modern warfare, touching on themes of mentorship, redemption, and the cost of violence.
