In a statement Cannes said the news was the final announcement for the Official Selection.

Rambo V: Last Blood is directed by Adrian Grunberg and produced by Millennium Films and stars Stallone, Paz Vega and Oscar Jaenada. The film will be released in the US and worldwide from September 20 and will be distributed in France by Metropolitan Filmexport on October 8.
