Stallone on radio: Rocky 6 looks like reality |
Just listened to an interview today from Sylvester Stallone on the Jim Rome Show and he had a number of interesting things to say:
- Rocky 6 is written and ready for production: it is about fighters having a “puncher’s chance”. He said one of the producers was having some hangups with it (he didn’t elaborate) but otherwise it is going forward. Fans of Rocky sequels will rejoice. Stallone admitted he was disappointed with Rocky 5 and how he made Rocky too mortal. I suspect this movie, if it ever comes out, to be a cross between Rocky 3 and 4 and to sell much like Rocky 5. Time to hang up the gloves on this franchise, Sly.
- His kids wanted him to do Spy Kids 3D and he is the bad guy in it. I am looking forward to this movie, actually, and we have plans to go see it. I like 3D movies and hope that this isn’t a dud and will help to spur on more 3D development. [update 7/4/04: reviewed Aug 3, 2003]




[…] This post conjures up a radio interview I heard on the Jim Rome show on July 23, 2003. Looks like Sly’s dreams are coming true. Last October, I suggested we discuss ideas for Rocky 7 and beyond but there were no takers. Guess Hmm readers aren’t that jazzed about seeing more of the original Rock. […]
