Stallone Not Involved With Rambo TV Series
Fox's new Rambo spinoff series, Rambo: New Blood, will not feature franchise-star Sylvester Stallone either on screen or off.
While it was previously rumoured that Stallone would executive produce the series and perhaps even guest star, his representatives have told Deadline that he is not involved with the show at all but that he "wish the others well with the project.”
Written by Die Hard and The Fugitive scribe Jeb Stuart, New Blood will feature John Rambo's son, ex-Navy SEAL J.R., and his complex relationship with his father.
Produced by Entertainment One and Avi Lerner, New Blood has been in the works since 2013 and was picked up by Fox just this year. Stallone's potential involvement in the series was talked about in previous reporting but never confirmed.
Tarantino Discusses the Possibility of Kill Bill Vol. 3
A third volume in the Kill Bill franchise is very much a possibility, according to director Quentin Tarantino.
"There definitely is a possibility. Stop short of seeing a probability," Tarantino told What the Flick!? (via Entertainment Weekly).
With regard to why the wait for Kill Bill 3 has been been so long, Tarantino added: "I put the character of Beatrix Kiddo through a lot, and so I wanted her to have this much time for peace... The whole idea

Max Payne Rated by ESRB for PlayStation 4
Max Payne has been rated by the Entertainment Software Rating Board for PlayStation 4.
Although there's no content description for the listing, it does reveal that the game is getting a mature rating for blood and violence. What's interesting is that it's only listed for PlayStation 4 and nothing else.
This could mean that the PlayStation 2 version of Max Payne is coming to PS4. Just last week, Sony announced a batch of games coming from PS2 to PS4, included were Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto III, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Rockstar published Max Payne when it released back in 2001, so it's possible that even more of the publisher's games are coming over.
Fallout 4 Should Be The Last Fallout
Fallout 4 is one of my favorite games in years. In my job at IGN I’ve spent hundreds of hours playing, writing, and talking about Fallout 4. It’s extraordinarily flavorful video game comfort food. Pound-per-pound it’s the most fun I’ve ever had with the franchise.
That’s why I think Fallout 4 should be the last Fallout game.
Bethesda could easily turn their attention to the next great Fallout sequel, and I have little doubt that it would be another quality adventure. But I hope they don’t. I hope instead they take their immense resources and produce something utterly new: a big, strange, wonderful universe establishing completely new icons and traditions. Fallout 4 oozes creativity, and I’d like to see that same fertile imagination applied to something completely original. I eagerly await another big Bethesda adventure that carries me into a huge, fascinating world I’ve never seen before.
Gone Home PS4, Xbox One Release Date Announced
The Fullbright Company announced today that Gone Home will make its PlayStation 4 and Xbox One debut on January 12, 2016.
This new version has been developed by Fullbright in-house and will utilize the Unity 5 engine, an upgrade from Unity 4, which was used for the original PC version. Gone Home on consoles will also feature 90 minutes of behind-the-scenes developer commentary.
Gone Home will still be released on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in partnership with Midnight City, despite financial troubles at the Majesco independent publishing label. Midnight City’s plan to publish Gone Home on consoles was originally announced way back in March 2014, but Fullbright designer Steve Gaynor said earlier this year that the deal had “come to an end,” leaving the console version “not actively in development” at the time. It appears things worked out in the end.
Star Trek Beyond Trailer Coming with Force Awakens
Fans will see a preview of Star Trek Beyond before Star Wars: The Force Awakens, as Paramount has reportedly secured a trailer slot for the big release.
J.J. Abram directed Star Trek and Star Trek Into Darkness, and his production company Bad Robot is producing the new film. Though Abrams is not directing the new Star Trek film, it's still an obvious marketing choice. Because Abrams took on Star Wars, Justin Lin is now in charge of Star Trek Beyond.
Star Trek Beyond is set to be released on July 22, 2016.
The Division Beta Delayed, Xbox One Alpha Coming This Week
The beta for Tom Clancy's The Division will now take place in "early 2016" rather than this month.
This news comes via Ubisoft's blog, but it's not all bad news if you were planning on trying out The Division this year. If you've pre-ordered the Xbox One version, you will have priority access to a closed alpha that will take place between December 9 and 12.
If you're on the wait list for the alpha, you may be granted access "on an as needed basis." The size of the alpha client will be 23.2GB. If you've pre-ordered the game on PC, Xbox One, or PS4, then you will definitely get access to the closed beta when it eventually launches.
