What happens

Rambo: Last Blood is a 2019 American vigilante action film written by and starring Sylvester Stallone as John Rambo. Directed by Adrian Grünberg, it is the sequel to Rambo (2008) and the fifth installment in the Rambo film series. The story follows Rambo traveling to Mexico to save his adopted niece, who has been kidnapped by a Mexican cartel and forced into prostitution. Paz Vega, Sergio Peris-Mencheta, Adriana Barraza, Yvette Monreal, Genie Kim aka Yenah Han, Joaquín Cosío, and Óscar Jaenada star in supporting roles. Plans for a fifth film were announced on and off again since 2008, with different iterations developed and canceled. The film was finally announced in May 2018, with Grünberg attached to direct. Principal photography began in October 2018 in Bulgaria and Spain and ended in December 2018, with additional photography in May 2019. Brian Tyler returned to score the film. Rambo: Last Blood was theatrically released on September 20, 2019, to negative reviews from critics, who criticized its script, graphic violence, and perceived racist and xenophobic attitudes towards Mexico, though the action sequences and Stallone's performance were praised. The film grossed $91.5 million worldwide against a production budget of $50 million and print and advertisement costs of $30 million. A prequel film, John Rambo, is currently in production.
