Sylvester Stallone could soon be blowing stuff up and mangling people on the small screen.

The actor is in negotiations to take part in a television series based on his iconic movie Rambo, Entertainment One – which is co-developing the project – said. Should Stallone sign on, he would be involved on a creative level, and could potentially reprise his role as Rambo.

Entertainment One is developing the project with Avi Lerner – the producer behind the 2008 film Rambo and the The Expendables movie series, which also stars Stallone – and Nu Image. Under the agreement, they will collectively develop the series and shop it to broadcasters in the US and internationally.

“I’m happy to be partnering with a prolific company like Entertainment One which has a track record of creating high quality programming for their broadcast partners around the world,” Lerner said.
