With Rambo set to return later this year with Rambo V: Last Blood, Sylvester Stallone is in Cannes this week promoting the film and taking part in a well-deserved celebration of his incredible career, and while there he’s making sure to tease some upcoming projects.
Brought to our attention by Deadline, a Cobra TV series is even in early development!
“That (conceit) was what if Bruce Springsteen had a gun? That was rock n’ roll meets drama. That should have been another franchise because that character was so cool. And I blew it. My personal life got in the way. But we’re trying to bring it back as a streaming TV series. Bring out the zombie squad,” Stallone told the Cannes crowd. He added:
“I’m long gone, but the idea is really good.”
Stallone played Marion Cobretti in the R-rated 1986 film, a tough-on-crime street cop who must protect the only surviving witness to a strange murderous cult with far reaching plans.
