It's been confirmed Sylvester Stallone will not be a part of US television channel FOX's new series "Rambo: New Blood," despite earlier reports he was preparing to be part of the program.

Some reports even had Stallone reprising his role as 'John Rambo.'

Stallone, himself, along with his reps, have denied these reports, saying he had no plans to be part of the new "Rambo" series, on or off-camera.

Some reports had put him as an Executive Director.

Plans for a "Rambo: New Blood" series first came about in 2013.

The people behind the concept had originally confirmed they were in talks with Stallone on him having a role.

However, now that it's not going to happen, its unclear whether the series will go ahead.

The "Rambo" series is based on a US Special Forces soldier who returns to the United States after numerous tours in Vietnam, only to be thrust back into action in various roles during the multi-part film series.

The first in the "Rambo" film series came out in 1982, with the last hitting theatres to poor reviews in 2008.
