Sylvester Stallone has revealed the most memorable moment and toughest challenge of his film career: getting 2006's RockyBalboa made. 'No one wanted to make it ... It was considered a joke. But in my heart I loved the idea...'👏
Sylvester Stallone reveals the most memorable moment of his career was producing, directing, writing, and starring in Rocky Balboa. With a career spanning upwards of five decades, Stallone has cemented himself as one of the greatest action stars of all time. His first major claim to fame was writing and starring in the watershed boxing drama Rocky in 1976, which launched its respective franchise and made Stallone’s name almost synonymous with “champ.
Rocky’s cultural impact led to the Stallone-helmed follow-ups, Rocky II, III, and IV, with the latter being an unapologetic, massively successful byproduct of the hyper-muscular 1980s. Following the titular Rocky’s battle with the seemingly invincible Ivan Drago , the Italian Stallion returned in 1990's Rocky V, which saw the Philadelphia slugger lose his wealth and be forced into retirement.
Like Rocky V, Rocky Balboa was meant to be the final chapter in the Italian Stallion’s story. Thankfully, Stallone saw the potential in Coogler’s idea of a spinoff focusing on Apollo Creed’s illegitimate son Adonis . Both Creed and Creed II were a critical and commercial success, with the latter earning Stallone his second Oscar nomination in nearly 40 years for portraying the same character. In Creed II, Rocky appeared to pass the torch and retire for good.
