Sexagenerian actor Sylvester Stallone has hired a 30-year-old body double, to perform some stunts in a new Rambo movie.

The new flick about troubled Vietnam war veteran and guerilla warfare expert will see the revival of John Rambo, the legendry action character. The movie is set to release in the year 2008, 20 years after Rambo 3.

In the latest Rambo flick, Rambo is hired by a group of Christian human rights missionaries to protect them against pirates during a humanitarian aid in Burma. After some of the missionaries are taken prisoner by Burmese soldiers, Rambo does the impossible job of assembling a team of mercenaries to rescue the surviving relief workers

Stallone took up the project shortly after being charged with importing Jintropin a banned bodybuilding drug at Sydney airport, Australia. Considered a performance-enhancing hormone, it is strictly banned in Australia.

Last year, in Rocky Balboa, Stallone doubled as both director and star. The film was a success.
