Austin-based cinema-eatery Alamo Drafthouse Cinema is celebrating one of America’s greatest cultural icons and cinema’s greatest action franchises with an explosive Rambo five-film marathon event at twenty-three locations across the United States. Audiences will go from First Blood to Last Blood, beginning with 1982’s First Blood, then continuing with Rambo: First Blood Part II (1985), Rambo III (1988), Rambo (2008), and then concluding with the new Lionsgate/Millennium Media blockbuster finale, Rambo: Last Blood.
“This marathon is for the ultimate Rambo fan and there’ll be so much to see – the thoughtful drama of First Blood, the action spectacle of the middle installments, and finally, how it comes to an end in Last Blood.” – Cristina Cacioppo, Alamo Drafthouse programmer
Opening in theaters from Lionsgate in association with Millennium Media nationwide on September 20th, Rambo: Last Blood picks up almost four decades after the events of First Blood, with Sylvester Stallone reprising his iconic role as Vietnam vet John Rambo. Last Blood finds Rambo confronting his past and unearthing his ruthless combat skills to exact revenge in a final mission and, quite likely, the last chapter of the legendary series. Rambo: Last Blood is directed by Adrian Grunberg from a screenplay by Matthew Cirulnick and Sylvester Stallone. The story is by Dan Gordon and Sylvester Stallone based on characters created by David Morrell, and also stars Paz Vega, Sergio Peris-Mencheta, Adrianna Barraza, Yvette Monreal, Genie Kim aka Yenah Han, Joaquin Cosio, and Oscar Jaenada. The film is produced by Avi Lerner, Kevin King Templeton, Yariv Lerner, Les Weldon and Rob Van Norden.
