Yesterday, Tiger Shroff shared the first poster for his new film, ‘Rambo’. The legacy of ‘Rambo’ was started by the legendary actor, Sylvester Stallone, and this successful franchise made Rambo an iconic action hero of our times.
And now, Tiger is stepping into his big shoes.

Tiger Shroff would be Bollywood’s best choice to live up to Stallone’s legacy as his jaw-dropping sequences in ‘Baaghi’ showed his prowess as an action hero.
But, the original ‘Rambo’, Stallone, is little worried about this Bollywood remake because obviously, Indian directors have not really done justice to Hollywood remakes (ever). Take ‘Bang Bang’ for example. Thus Stallone hopes that makers don’t ‘wreck’ this film, too.
He said, “I read recently they are remaking Rambo in India !! .. Great character.. hope they don’t wreck it .”
Tiger Shroff values that it would be impossible to replace the great actor, but he believes he is also ready to show his calibre. He said,
Being a martial artist and a huge action movie buff since childhood, this all seems very surreal, and I’m very grateful for this opportunity. By no means do I believe I can replace the legendary Sylvester Stallone; however, I do feel that somehow this is something I’ve been preparing for since childhood.
He also responded to Stallone’s post with humility,
Humbled and blessed to be walking the road u lay down 🙏❤ u r irreplaceable and I hope I don’t let you down sir @TheSlyStallone #RamboRemake https://t.co/A55zcoj5Kr
