In the famous shots of kids jumping across roofs in the Watts projects from Charles Burnett’s The Killer of Sheep (1977) there were no stunt doubles, wire-flying, or special effects. Burnett later regretted this considering the real danger the children were in.

DO YOU THINK SYLVESTER STALLONE REGRETS IT MORE?😎 Listening to Brigitte Nielsen tell Larry King that Sylvester Stallone was a “horrible husband” is one side of a VERY messy Hollywood marriage. But there’s another side that gets left out. Their marriage lasted only 19 months and after it collapsed, allegations of Nielsen’s infidelity followed her including claims from Stallone’s own mother that Brigitte was cheating during the marriage. Stallone later described that period of his life very differently. He talked about being publicly humiliated, ridiculed around the world and deeply affected by the breakup. He even said the anger and misery surrounding the end of that marriage followed him into Rambo III. So when Nielsen sits across from Larry King and describes what kind of husband Stallone was, I think the facts matters. And there’s something else worth remembering: before they married, Stallone publicly described her as dedicated, family-oriented and “true to her man.” Imagine believing THAT about the person you married and then watching the whole thing implode publicly. She has had decades to tell her version of Sylvester Stallone. I’d love to hear Stallone sit down for an interview and tell his version of Brigitte Nielsen. I have a feeling he regrets those 19 months a whole lot more than she does. BsSpin🐝

Sylvester Stallone was so broke he sold his dog for 40 dollars outside a 7-Eleven just to eat. Weeks later he was offered 360,000 dollars for the Rocky script, and he said no. "That role was me. Nobody else was going to play it." - the catch was he could not star in it, so he turned down life-changing money to keep the part - once it sold, he tracked down the dog and bought him back bookmark & watch - the most insane all-or-nothing bet in Hollywood history

THIS WAS STALLONE IN 2024 … TWO YEARS LATER, HIS WORDS HIT EVEN HARDER. Back in November 2024, just days after Trump won the election, Sylvester Stallone stood at Mar-a-Lago and made a comparison nobody in that room was going to forget: “We got the second George Washington.” The man who gave us Rocky compared Trump’s story to the transformation at the heart of that movie … a man taking hit after hit, getting back up and becoming something bigger than anyone expected. Stallone called Trump a “mythical character” and said nobody else on the planet could have accomplished what he had. And watching that clip again in 2026, knowing everything that has happened since, makes it land differently. Trump faced criminal prosecutions, enormous legal judgments, attempts to remove him from ballots and two assassination attempts during the 2024 campaign. And after all of it? He won the presidency again. George Washington fought to establish this nation. Stallone saw Trump as the man fighting to preserve it and whether you agree with that comparison or not, there’s no mistaking how extraordinary Trump’s political comeback is. 2 years later, Stallone’s “second George Washington” comparison may be even more striking than it was the night he made it. 🇺🇸🔥

Sylvester Stallone walked into Johnny Carson’s show in 1976 with a movie nobody expected to become a classic. Rocky was made for roughly $960,000, and Stallone explains how they had to keep everything simple and focus on the story rather than trying to make the movie look bigger than it was. Then he tells the story of Carl Weathers auditioning for Apollo Creed. Apparently, Weathers punched Stallone in the forehead during the audition. 😂 And the fight scenes were anything but quick to make, Stallone says they spent roughly 35–40 hours rehearsing for every minute of fight footage that actually made it into the movie. That makes those Rocky fights look very different when you realize how much work went into making them feel spontaneous. What impresses you more, making a great movie with a tiny budget, or putting that much preparation into a scene that only lasts a few minutes?

This scene would've changed Sylvester Stallone's fate. In the first cut of First Blood, John Rambo dies. That’s how the book ends. That’s how the director wanted it. One film. No sequel. No franchise. Just a dead veteran. Stallone refused. He said killing him meant the war won; there was no way out for the men who came home. So they shot two versions and screened both endings. The audience that watched him live liked the film. The audience that watched him die loved the film… then left pissed off. So they let him live. That one decision created an $800 million franchise, an iconic character, and a completely different Stallone career.

Sylvester Stallone revealed he raised his daughters like soldiers waking them up at 6 AM every day to train and claim they have abs. His daughter recalled: “When we were in middle school, from maybe second grade to high school, you would wake us up every day at 6:00 AM.” “We’d have to go downstairs: push-ups, sit-ups, clean jerk, deadlift, throw shot put…” Stallone simply replied: “You were in the army now.” “A six-pack when we were in middle school and I wish I was kidding.” “No, genuinely! Look at our photos when we’re wearing bathing suits. We had abs because of the way you raised us.”

Brad Pitt has learned how to do some stuff, but he's a country boy. Charles Bronson was tough. I think Jason Statham's tough, Sylvester Stallone was tough at one point, Arnold Schwarzenegger no, he took too many steroids. Steve Reeves was a real guy." Antonio: "It's just different times. You know they smoked cigarettes and they went lifting."

Stallone says 'what doesn't kill you' is a lie, Arnold fires back that it killed his brother, then credits his brutal childhood for making him leave Austria Stallone: “I can't just blame it on them, cuz when I go back and I look at my mother's upbringing, orphanages and this and that, they were angry. And they just thought, 'That's the way I'm going to pass it on. You're not going to be happy if I'm not happy.'” Arnold: “My brother Meinhard, he died. He died because his reaction was to become an alcoholic himself. One day driving with a car and then hitting a telegraph post. And just smashed into it and got killed.” Arnold: “And on top of it, I said to myself, 'If I would have grown up like some people do with all the love in the world, I would have never left home. I would have stayed in Austria.'” Stallone: “You escaped in bodybuilding. I escaped the theater cuz I wasn't too happy with the reality. So I said, 'This is my world cuz I don't like this one.' I think that we were going to do it no matter what. It just would have been nice with a little bit more encouragement. That's all.” Hearing Arnold talk about his brother completely changes the tone of the conversation. I wasn't expecting it to get that personal. Which part of this conversation stood out to you the most?

Sylvester Stallone says he wrote the original Rocky script in three and a half days Sistine: "But obviously it worked out, you wrote the script in three days? Four days?" Sylvester: "Three and a half days" "I tell young people that want to be writers, don't get so hung up on the perfection. Know that 90 percent of it is garbage" "The fact that you got through, that's amazing, that you actually got a beginning, middle, and then, no matter how flawed, that's the hard part, because 90 percent of the writers, they go up to about page 80 and they burn out, they don't have that finale. If you happen to have an ending, you're home free"

Sylvester Stallone on the unwritten initiation rite of every Rocky film: Asked about the boxing in Creed, Stallone explains that he warned Michael B. Jordan early on what he was signing up for. Carl Weathers had hit him. Dolph Lundgren had put him in the hospital. Mr. T had "corrected" him. "You really haven't been in a Rocky film until you've taken a shot," Stallone recalls telling Jordan. "So you have to have an initiation into the club." Jordan's response: "Bring it on." The man on the other end of the glove was British heavyweight Tony Bellew... six foot three, and throwing the kind of punches that don't look like much on camera precisely because they're real. Stallone explains the physics: "When fighters throw punches, it isn't like in the movies… You miss, and there's these big, overemphasized punch boxers. Boom. It's very, very tight. That's what makes it so powerful. And to the untrained eye, you say, ah, it doesn't look like much." Then he turns to Jordan: "Well, ask him, were you knocked out?" Jordan doesn't deny it: "Not knocked out, but I was definitely smelling the ground for a lot longer than you were." Stallone, gleeful: "Oh, you were snoring." The kicker is that they didn't even get the shot the first time. The camera missed the punch. They had to run it back on a second take... and Jordan, already dazed from the first one, walked back in and took another. The footage that survived was caught on a phone from the sidelines. "He set me up," Jordan says. Stallone admits it without hesitation: he knew Bellew was going to connect. He wanted it on film. He wanted to send it to his daughters as a warning. Watching the replay back, Jordan narrates his own KO in slow motion: "The head comes, body goes." Then, drily: "Yeah. That wasn't too fun." The bit lands as comedy, but underneath it is a real point about how the Rocky franchise has stayed credible for forty years. The hits are real. The actors get hurt. Every name in the lineage (Weathers, Lundgren, Mr. T, now Jordan) has paid the same tax. It's the reason the fights read as fights instead of choreography, and the reason audiences keep showing up.

Sylvester Stallone says he turned down $360,000 for Rocky because he refused to let anyone else play Rocky Balboa. “They wanted Ryan O’Neal, James Caan, even Nick Nolte to star.” “My agents told me, ‘Are you crazy? That’s ridiculous money.’” “They offered me $360,000 just to sell the script.” “I said no.” “I knew if I sold it and it became a hit without me, I’d never forgive myself.” “For about three months, I held out.” “Eventually they agreed, but only if I starred in a movie with a budget cut to around $900,000.” “They also had a 14-day clause where they could fire me at any time.” “We shot the entire first Rocky in just 28 days.”
