Sylvester Stallone will not feature in new `Rambo` television series

Sylvester Stallone said he will not be involved in any capacity in the `Rambo: New Blood` TV series.

Despite the production companies endeavours to get the original "Rambo" star on board the project, Sylvester Stallone will not feature in the series.

The star told Deadline Monday that he will not be involved in any capacity in the ‘Rambo: New Blood’ TV series bought by Fox . The script for the new series was written by director Jeb Stuart of "Die Hard" fame and was to focus on Rambo's relationship with his son. The report suggests that without Stallone's participation, the project is unlikely to go on.

Sylvester Stallone remains connected to Fox as an executive producer on another TV series in development for the network, based on the action franchise 'The Expendables'.
