The daughter of Rambo’s friend, Monreal’s not-yet-named character will get kidnapped by a Mexican cartel, inciting the titular septuagenarian sentry to grab some hardware and do what he does best.

Yvette Monreal recently joined the Rambo 5 cast, reported THR. While most of Peris-Mencheta’s CV is filled with Spanish productions, North American audiences may also know him from a role in 2010 movie sequel Resident Evil: Afterlife. Peris-Mencheta, a Spanish actor, recently put in a memorably powerful performance on the FX crime drama, Snowfall, as embattled Mexican luchador Gustavo “El Oso” Zapata.

His character will be Hugo Martinez, the leader of the cartel whose act of kidnapping will prove fateful, since it sends the one and only John Rambo on his trail. Sergio Peris-Mencheta will play the Rambo 5 villain, reported Deadline.

The fall is as good a time as any for John Rambo’s last go-around. Rambo 5: Last Blood is set to arrive on September 20, 2019.
