Maybe we should all try being nice to each other. I'd put it somewhere between Baby Yoda vs. Is this the most senseless celebrity beef of the decade? Maybe. In touch with Mr Balboa - just so all the fans can relax…There ya go. There was a press leak last week which was unfortunate. "There’s no approved script, no deals in place, no director and I was personally under the impression that my friend Sly Stallone was involved as a producer or even as an actor. "Just to set the record straight regarding a possible Drago spinoff," Lundgren wrote. He wrote, “Dolph, why? Not a phone call?”ĭolph, why? Why, Dolph! Stallone continued, in another (!) deleted Instagram post, "By the way, I once had nothing but respect for Dolph but he NEVER told me about what was going on behind my back with the character I created for him !!! REAL FRIENDS Are more precious than gold.” Well, Dolph told us his side of the story, in a post that is actually still on Instagram. Now, If that wasn't enough Sylvester-Stallone-deleted-Instagram-rant news for you, the man turned to his Rocky IV co-star, with words ripped straight from a canned '80s film script. "I’d like to congratulate Irwin Winkler and family beating another wonderful character into the ground! #no shame," Stallone wrote. As the story goes, Winkler took all the rights to the Rocky franchise. Stallone doesn't name names, but in another deleted Instagram message (which you can still glimpse on Twitter), he seems to confirm that his target is Rocky producer Irwin Winkler. Sly, man, easy on the all-caps! We hear you. I’m just gonna punch him out and fucking leave."įortunately, Sly reportedly apologized and Lundgren chalked it all up to him being a "crazy Italian." Hopefully, Lundgren continued, "he knows that I’ve always respected him and loved him, and I think that’s why we’re still friends." Friends who constantly fight, apparently. I called my wife that time and I basically just told her, If he says one more word, I’m gonna knock him out and fuck this movie, I’m outta here. We took a lunch break and I remember I was kind of in tears. Rocky’s journey into fighting shape is accompanied by the greatest training montage song of all time Gonna Fly Now and culminates with one of the most famous scenes in cinema: a run up the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art (an exercise that was part of the real-life training routine of Joe Frazier). And there was press there that day too, international press. " You know, basically in front of everybody. What the fuck, what are you doing?,"Lundgren recalled. "It was like, My grandmother could do it better than that. According to Lundgren, Stallone allegedly "was very harsh on me in a scene in The Expendables where he kinda yelled at me in front of the whole crew and had me do about 20 takes on a scene." Harsh. Stallone directed and starred in the film, with Lundgren appearing as one of his A-list mercenaries. Years after Rocky IV, the two returned to the screen together for the star-studded explosion fest, The Expendables. " We had some good times and bad times," Lundgren told Variety, " kinda like family to some degree." But this family certainly feuds, down to the last bell. The Rocky IV stars have disliked each other both on screen and off for nearly four decades now, and they never pull any punches. This week, in things you absolutely love to see: Sylvester Stallone and Dolph Lundgren are beefing like it's 1985.
