According to Variety, Entertainment One is partnering with producer Avi Lerner and Nu Image to develop a TV series based on the Rambo movie franchise.

Stallone co-wrote and starred in the 1982 action film First Blood, based on David Morrell”s 1972 novel of the same name, which spawned three sequels: 1985′s Rambo: First Blood Part II, 1988′s Rambo III and 2008′s Rambo.
Entertainment One and Nu Image plan to shop the project to networks in the United States.
