Mondo and Nautilus Art Prints team up once again to release this killer new movie poster for Rambo: First Blood Part II by artist Francesco Francavilla! This is the companion piece to the First Blood print by Oliver Barrett that Nautilus and Mondo released last month. Francesco killed it on Sylvester Stallone’s bloody and brutal 1985 sequel.
“When asked to do a poster for Rambo, I had to go with the sequence that has stuck with me through the years since first seeing the film: the helicopter chase! On one end you have Rambo piloting the iconic Vietnam war US chopper, and on the other you have this cool looking BEAST, the winged Russian chopper. I really wanted to exaggerate the size difference by making the Russian chopper so massive that the poster could hardly contain it. I think it made for a great visual element that conveys just what Rambo is up against.” – Francesco Francavilla
