Sylvester Stallone is the action star known for the Rocky and Rambo franchises, which delivered high-octane action for cinephiles. The actor wrote the first Rocky and became a star overnight as the film earned $225 million worldwide against an $860,000 budget. Stallone was nominated for Best Actor and Original Screenplay at the Oscars.
The film spawned the Rocky franchise which is still going strong. The actor also created the hugely successful Rambo franchise and The Expendables film. However, Stallone stated that he did not find any similarities between him and these iconic characters. He also mentioned that the only character he ever put details of himself into was that of a hitman.

Sylvester Stallone is synonymous with his breakthrough role Rocky Balboa. But despite the character being perhaps his most recognizable performance, Stallone doesn’t share too much in common with him.

It might be difficult to imagine someone else in the role of Rocky Balboa. The actor is very close to the role, as he wrote the character for him to play. But although Stallone was set on portraying Rocky, he and the famous boxer had little in common.
“I, Sylvester Stallone, am really not much like Rocky. Rocky is a much more ethical, moral person than I am. He’s really a great guy,” Stallone once told The Aquarian.
Similarly, he also wasn’t too much like his other iconic character John Rambo.

James Marsden, Julianne Nicholson and Sarah Shahi are joining Dan Fogelman’s upcoming Hulu series, Variety has learned.
The untitled series was first announced in April 2023. The trio join previously announced series lead Sterling K. Brown in the show. Exact plot and character details are being kept under wraps, but sources have previously describe the show as a thriller and say Brown would star as the head of security for a former president.
According to an individual with knowledge of the project, Marsden will play the president. Shahi will play a therapist to powerful people with secrets of her own. Nicholson will play a political power broker.
Marsden is fresh off of his Emmy and Golden Globe-nominated role in the Freevee series “Jury Duty.” His other recent credits include the feature “Knox Goes Away,” the “Party Down” revival at Starz, the Netflix series “Dead to Me,” and “Westworld.” He is...

There's striking while the iron is hot, and then there's striking while the iron is much closer to room temperature. "Escape Plan," director Mikael Håfström's 2013 action film pairing Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger together for a long-awaited team-up, is the latter. By the time the duo combined their powers to play a prison security expert (Stallone) who is wrongly incarcerated (I sincerely hope writers Miles Chapman and Arnell Jesko patted themselves on the back for coming up with such a brazenly obvious dramatic irony) and has to break out of an illicit maximum-security prison with the help of a fellow inmate (Schwarzenegger), their glory days anchoring '80s and '90s macho-fests were long behind them.
Contrary to that, the first "Escape Plan" is actually pretty fun! Or, rather, it's fun in the same way that Stallone and Schwarzenegger's best action movie throwbacks are, in that the pair spend...

Curb Your Enthusiasm returns to Max this month in what’s being called the show’s final season (for now). If you’re not ready for the Larry David-centric comedy series to end, you can binge all eleven of the show’s previous seasons on Max right now before hitting the new episodes.
Tokyo Vice will also be back in February for season 2. Stars Ansel Elgort, Ken Watanabe, Rinko Kikuchi, Rachel Keller, Show Kasamatsu, and Ayumi Ito are joined by Kubozuka and Miki Maya this time around, as Jake Adelstein feels the danger closing in on him. Max also welcomes you to the premiere of the highly acclaimed (and highly depraved) Dicks: The Musical this month, as a couple of self-obsessed businessmen discover they’re identical twins and decided to bring their divorced parents back together.

Sylvester Stallone once returned to the action genre in this 2012 thriller with Jason Momoa. But Momoa shared there were times the star wanted to relive his Rocky glory days while on set.

Bullet to the Head marked the first time Momoa teamed up with Stallone, and saw Stallone going back to his action star roots.

Once again, the caprices of the Netflix algorithm have somehow unearthed a little talked-about near-bomb from a decade ago and pushed it right to the top of the streaming service's popularity charts. In mid-April of 2023, the Kim Jee-woon action flick "The Last Stand" with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Johnny Knoxville was Netflix's #1 movie. In this case, it is a minor work of justice, as "The Last Stand" was actually a pretty good movie. It was bright, upbeat, enjoyably violent, and boasted a fun cast of notable supporting players, including the inimitable Luis Guzmán, Jaime Alexander, and Rodrigo Santoro. Forest Whitaker played an FBI guy. The film was a modest critical success (it boasts a 61% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes), but only made $43 million at the worldwide box office. It passed from the public consciousness pretty quickly after that.
"The Last Stand" was, of course, meant to be something of a comeback for Schwarzenegger.

Sarah Shahi has been cast in the lead role of the ABC drama pilot “Judgement,” Variety has learned.
The project was originally ordered to pilot at the broadcaster in December. Shahi will star in the role of Mia Bahari in the show, which is described as a high-stakes legal soap. Shahi is also attached as a producer on the project.
Per the official character description, “We’ll meet Mia Bahari in two distinct periods of her life. In one, she’s a brilliant, successful Appeals Court judge being vetted for the U.S. Supreme Court…so long as her dark and painful secrets don’t derail the nomination.

"Tulsa King" kept Freddie Poole busy. He was the stunt coordinator, doubled for Sylvester Stallone in most episodes, and handled second unit work for the Taylor Sheridan-created mob series. Poole, who's collaborated with Stallone for over a decade now, even directed a highlight in the debut season: episode 3's car chase through the streets of Tulsa, Oklahoma. Stallone's 76-year-old mobster is more calculated than quick whether he's throwing or receiving punches, which Poole helped depict in the stunts.

The Oscar-nominated screenwriter Alessandro Camon (The Messenger) has signed on to adapt the Italian psychological thriller You Will Find the Words (Le parole lo sanno) for the screen.
British director Peter Webber (Girl With a Pearl Earring, Hannibal Rising) is attached to direct the film, which Rome-based Fenix Entertainment are producing.
Franzoso’s novel centers around a man with a terminal illness who has a chance encounter with a woman on a park bench, an encounter that leads to an extreme act of violence.
Camon told The Hollywood Reporter Fenix approached him about the adaptation and introduced him to Webber.
“We immediately hit it off,” he notes, calling Webber a “Renaissance man. He’s a cosmopolitan, he loves many genres and languages, and he’s truly into what he does.”

At 80 years old, Walter Hill shows no signs of slowing down. The veteran director of influential action thrillers like “The Warriors,” “48 Hrs.,” and “Streets of Fire” has reinvented himself in recent years as a reliable gun-for-hire on prestige TV Westerns and crime movies like “Bullet to the Head” and “The Assignment” that fall somewhere between VOD schlock and ‘70s grindhouse revivalism.

Nobody excels at playing chill dude-bros who can also kill you with their pinkie quite like Jason Momoa. It's an archetype the former "Baywatch" actor has steadily refined so as to better fit his talents over the course of his career, starting with his breakout role on "Stargate: Atlantis" and going on to his time playing Arthur Curry in the DC Extended Universe. With "Fast X," however, Momoa will finally get the chance to portray a full-on villain, as opposed to a giant cinnamon roll who happens to be really good at murder.
Okay, so that's not entirely accurate. If you've ever indulged in the junk food cinema that is director Walter Hill's 2013 action-thriller "Bullet to the Head," then you know Momoa has played something of an antagonist before. One could also point to his role as the werewolf Connor Slaughter — yes, that's his real name, and it is...

Arriving on Netflix this Friday, August 12th, is J.J. Perry’s Day Shift, a kickass horror/action/comedy hybrid that stars Jamie Foxx as a vampire hunter working in California’s San Fernando Valley and features a killer ensemble that also includes Dave Franco, Snoop Dogg, Peter Stormare, Scott Adkins, Steve Howey, Meagan Goode, and Natasha Liu Bordizzo. Day Shift marks Perry’s directorial debut, but he’s been working in Hollywood for decades now as a stunt coordinator and second unit director, making his transition into the director’s chair a natural progression in his career.
During the recent press day for Day Shift, Daily Dead had the opportunity to speak with Perry about his first time at the helm of his own movie, and during our chat, he discussed how he was able to incorporate so many ideas that he’s had throughout his career into Day Shift,...

The biggest VFX decision on “The Matrix Resurrections,” of course, was how to update the mind-blowing Bullet Time effect for the return of Neo (Keanu Reeves) and Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss). After all, a lot has changed since Bullet Time earned the Oscar in 2000, creating the illusion of bending time and space so Neo could perform his balletic martial arts. But thanks to new advancements in physics-based lighting and volumetric capture, it’s now a lot easier to produce amazing photorealism. Yet director Lana Wachowski didn’t want the VFX to overwhelm her richer and warmer aesthetic, in keeping with the surprisingly emotional love story between Neo and Trinity. That applied to cracking the new code for Bullet Time by Dneg.
“One of the things that was important was the aesthetic,” said Dan Glass, Dneg’s senior VFX supervisor (who previously worked on “The Matrix Reloaded” and “The Matrix Revolutions”). “It’s clearly an upgrade.

“Annette” producer Charles Gillibert is set to produce “Rodeo,” Lola Quivoron’s daring feature debut about a young woman who infiltrates an underground dirt bike community in France.
Quivoron previously directed the short film “Au Loin, Baltimore,” which played at Locarno in 2016 and, co-directed (with Antonia Buresi) “Headshot,” a documentary about today’s youth that aired on Franco-German network Arte.
“Rodeo” shot entirely on the outskirts of Bordeaux, France, and follows a young misfit and small-time thug, Julia, who is fiercely passionate about riding. One summer, she encounters a crew of dirt riders and sets off to infiltrates their male-dominated world, but an accident will compromise her ability to fit in. As its title suggests, “Rodeo” will be packed with action scenes spearheaded by Mathieu Lardot, a stunt expert who’s worked on “Jason Bourne,” “Spectre,” “Rogue City,” “Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan” and “Mission: Impossible – Fallout,” among others.

Not the only Halloween-ready franchise being resuscitated this month, “V/H/S/94” puts back in action the omnibus series that was last seen seven years ago with disappointing third entry “V/H/S: Viral.” This belated return lands closer in quality to the 2012 kickoff feature than the following year’s superior “V/H/S/2,” as a mixed bag of entertainingly diverse if variably successful horror shorts. Going straight to genre streaming platform Shudder on Oct. 6, it should provide fans with a satisfying enough, seasonally apt new package of macabre tales still linked by a faux-found-footage concept.
That style does not seem a natural fit for Jennifer Reeder, who made the very mannered, David Lynchian feature “Knives and Skin” two years ago. That divisive movie certainly had a firm grip on its aesthetics, and she seems divested of both inspiration and conviction having to go with a hand-held video look here. An underwhelming wraparound frame for the other segments,...

"Let's play catch the bullet." Lionsgate has released an official trailer for a direct-to-dvd quality western called Catch the Bullet, from a filmmaker you've never heard of before named Michael Feifer (you don't want to look up the films he's made before this). The story sounds like pretty much every other western as well. A US Marshal, aided by an Indian scout and a bigoted town deputy, ride into hostile territory to rescue his kidnapped son from an outlaw gang lead by a psychopathic killer. I'm already bored just typing that out. Catch the Bullet co-stars the late Jay Pickett, who tragically passed away a few weeks ago at age 60 while filming Treasure Valley in Idaho. The film also stars Tom Skerritt, Peter Facinelli, Gattlin Griffith, Mason McNulty, and Tucson Vernon Walker. This is undoubtedly some direct-to-video junk, not only uninteresting but entirely derivative, with nothing much to offer besides...

Gerard Butler filed a lawsuit on Friday against production company Nu Image/Millennium Films, charging that he is owed at least $10 million in backend compensation for the 2013 film “Olympus Has Fallen.”
Butler’s suit comes on the heels of another high profile legal battle between a star and a producer over compensation. On Thursday, Scarlett Johannson filed suit against Disney, citing the simultaneous release of “Black Widow’ on Disney+ and in theaters. The breach of contract lawsuit charged that Disney “intentionally induced Marvel’s breach of the agreement, without justification, in order to prevent Ms. Johansson from realizing the full benefit of her bargain with Marvel.”
Butler’s representatives, as well as Nu Image/Millennium Films, did not immediately respond to a request from TheWrap for comment.

After directing Willem Dafoe in one of his greatest early roles as the villain in Streets of Fire, director Walter Hill is set to reunite with the actor for a new western, also starring Christoph Waltz. Titled Dead For a Dollar, the film is set in 1897 in New Mexico Territory, Chihuahua, Deadline reports.
The project will mark Hill’s first feature since his poorly received Michelle Rodriguez-led The Assignment five years ago. Prior to that, the 48 Hrs. and The Warriors director helmed Bullet to the Head starring Sylvester Stallone. Scripted by Hill and Matt Harris, check out the synopsis for Dead For a Dollar below.
The story will follow Max Borlund (Waltz), a famed bounty hunter, hired to find and return Rachel Price, the politically progressive wife of Nathan Price, a successful Santa Fe businessman. Max is told she has been kidnapped by an African American army deserter, Elijah Jones,...

“The Masked Singer” producers have kept us tuned in by shaking the format every season. The fifth edition included the introduction of the Cluedle-Doo. This costumed celebrity isn’t competing for the Golden Mask. Rather he is regaling us with clues about the contestants. He appeared in front of the four judges (Ken Jeong, Jenny McCarthy, Nicole Scherzinger and Robin Thicke) for the first time on “The Sing-a-Long: The Maskie Awards,” which aired April 28.
This special episode included a slew of clips of the Super 6 raising their voices in song. And we saw snippets of Cluedle-Doo in previous appearances delivering tantalizing teases about their real identities.
He also delivered a long-awaited first clue about himself: “I’m not just a roaster rooster who likes to cause chaos; I’m an undercover celebrity myself. I have a connection to another mischievous masked singer from the past, the Gremlin.” Keep reading for “The Masked Singer” spoilers,...

The weirdest thing about Guy Ritchie’s “Wrath of Man” isn’t that his new meathead heist movie (which he most definitely did not), or that the entire story hinges on the protagonist buying two burritos from the wrong food truck. It’s not that one of the major action set pieces is set to an industrial dubstep remix of Johnny Cash’s “Folsom Prison Blues,” nor even the undeniable fact that it kind of works. No, the weirdest thing about “Wrath of Man” is that one of the leads is named Bullet, but it’s not the one played by Jason Statham — the most bullet-shaped actor in the history of movies.
Instead, Bullet is embodied by the great Holt McCallany, a mountain of a man who more closely resembles an H-bomb than anything small enough to be fired out of a gun. Statham is therefore cast as H, a...

Kimo Stamboel’s ‘The Queen Of Black Magic, a chilling retelling of the cult classic Indonesian horror written by award-winning filmmaker Joko Anwar, is coming exclusively to Shudder January 28th. This trailer is terrifying!
The sins of the past come back with a vengeance in this new film from two of Indonesia’s modern masters of horror, director Kimo Stamboel (Headshot) and writer Joko Anwar.
A family travels to the distant, rural orphanage where the father was raised to pay their respects to the facility’s gravely ill director. But his and his best friends’ homecoming turns into a terrifying supernatural ordeal that threatens their and their families’ lives: someone is using dark magic to avenge evil deeds, long-buried but not forgotten. Stamboel’s film is a reimagining of the 1981 Indonesian horror classic of the same name.

Alto Reed, who played saxophone for multiplatinum Bob Seger’s Silver Bullet Band for nearly half a century, died Wednesday of colon cancer. He was 72.
Seger posted a note about his “lifelong friend and bandmate” on social media: “He was amazing – he could play just about anything,” he wrote. “In our band, he was the rock star.” Read the full post below.
Born Thomas Cartmell in Detroit in 1948, Reed was known for his showmanship onstage and his signature sax riff on “Turn the Page.” He first started playing with Seger in the early 1970s, played on its Back in ’72 albums and joined the band for its first headlining arena shows at Detroit’s Cobo Hall. By 1974, he was a full-fledged member of the Silver Bullet Band, which was about to break nationally with “Live” Bullet (1976), which was recorded at Cobo Hall and featured a scorching version of the Reed-fueled “Turn...

As a cisgender, heterosexual Black woman who went to an all-girls high school in New York City, there isn't much that I can presumably relate to in the Broadway musical The Prom. Much like the live show, Ryan Murphy's film adaptation of the musical follows four down-on-their-luck Broadway stars who set out to help a high schooler after discovering that she's banned from taking her girlfriend to prom. Though the four only plan to help Emma to give their self-centered images a charitable boost, they find themselves emotionally invested in her story, and when it backfires, genuinely fighting to give her a night she won't forget.

In a discussion with my friend Bastian Meiresonne, we agreed (and by agreed I mean he pointed out some facts and I concurred) on a number of things regarding Asian martial arts films. For starters, the misconception that martial arts films are one of the main products of the movie industry in the area, since, in fact, it has always been a very small percentage.

Following V/H/S, V/H/S/2 and V/H/S: Viral, V/H/S 94 will follow much the same format, but instead of a collection of disjointed shorts connected by a wraparound story, the plot of each part will form part of a single narrative pulled together by a linking tale that each segment will presumably augment with its events.
The filmmakers currently slated to provide a section of the film are Simon Barrett, writer of A Horrible Way to Die, You’re Next and The Guest, and director of Tape 49, the wraparound segment of V/H/S/2; Chloe Okuno, director...
