• Matthew Cirulnick's original screenplay included far more fights and clashes, especially towards the end when Rambo battles mercenaries. Stallone disliked this and, rewriting the script, made it less bloody and more realistic.
• After the initial cut following filming, the film was released on screens for a test run. This was in the spring of 2019. After that, some scenes were reshot and additional footage was filmed, and several other versions of the film were edited over the next few months. In any case, the editing was finalized just a couple of weeks before the film's theatrical release. At the last moment, the film was re-edited again, reducing its duration to around 90 minutes. This is why all the trailers for the film contain scenes and dialogue that were cut.
• Most of the traps that Rambo set in the tunnels were the same as the traps that the Viet Cong once set for American soldiers. Their goal was to maim the enemy so that they would then become easy prey.
• Initially, Sylvester Stallone wrote the story for 'Rambo: Last Blood' for the fourth film in the franchise in the mid-2000s, and screenwriter Dan Gordon wrote a version based on it called 'Rambo 4: The Border'. In this unfilmed version, Rambo lived in the Arizona wilderness after the events of 'Rambo 3', and when the daughter of an acquaintance was kidnapped by criminals involved in human trafficking, he went to Mexico, where he searched for the girl and fought villains along the way, with the help of an undercover FBI agent. Sheriff Will Teasle (played by Brian Dennehy) from the first film in the franchise served as Rambo's enemy. Although at one point it was decided to film this movie, the opinion prevailed that a film about events in Burma should be made. Since the release of the fourth film in the franchise, attempts have been made to write a new version of the unused story by Stallone and Gordon; finally, in 2018, Matthew Sirochnik wrote a screenplay based on it for 'Rambo: Last Blood', which Stallone then reworked, and the screenplay went into production. Stallone and Gordon are credited as the screenplay writers.
• The plot of the film was intended for use in the action movie 'Rambo IV' (Sylvester Stallone, 2008). Some of its elements were used in Gary Fleder's thriller 'Homefront' (2013) starring Jason Statham.
• When the bandits arrive at Rambo's farm, one of the cars is blown up upon approach. 5 cars with bandits remain. In the next 15 minutes, John Rambo kills 33 people. That's 6.6 people per car. A rather crowded company even for pickup trucks.
