Sylvester Stallone is set to star in Samaritan and Hunter Deadline report.
Stallone’s Balboa Productions acquired the rights to both films which will star Stallone himself.
The first of the films, which is aiming for production next year, is likely to be Samaritan which is a fresh take on the superhero genre with Stallone starring.
Also in the pipeline is the adaptation of James Bryon Huggins, Hunter.
Stallone bought films rights to Hunter in 2009 reportedly with the idea to incorporate it into a Rambo story line. The book centers on Nathaniel Hunter, whose hyper-tracking skills are employed to hunt down a raging beast, a half-human terror created by a renegade agency that is threatening to wreak havoc of civilization.
