Hollywood’s heartthrob turned action star? That’s right — Noah Centineo has officially been cast as the new Rambo in an upcoming 2026 reboot directed by Kitao Sakurai.

Taking over the role made legendary by Sylvester Stallone, Centineo will play a young John Rambo during the Vietnam War, marking a dramatic shift from his rom-com roots (To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before, Sierra Burgess Is a Loser) into full-blown action mode.

The announcement comes over 30 years after Rambo: First Blood first exploded onto screens. Stallone, who co-wrote and starred in the original, is not involved in the reboot — though he had once imagined someone like Ryan Gosling as his ideal successor.

Centineo’s casting has already sparked buzz online, with fans curious to see how the 29-year-old will bring intensity and depth to one of cinema’s most iconic soldiers.

Filming kicks off in Thailand in early 2026, and the new direction promises grit, reinvention, and a whole new generation of Rambo fans.
