The
latest scoop sent over to us comes in from 'shan' who has a
lot to say about a little inside Hollywood scoop for Rocky
VI. We all remember that Sage Stallone played the role
of Rocky Balboa Jr. in Rocky V, but it looks like
dad doesn't feel like he is the best option as son in Rocky
VI.
Here is the scoop on from 'shannon' on Sage and Sylvester
Stallone.
ROCKY 6 FOLLOW-UP:
A scooper at
IMDB and COUNTINGDOWN.COM
reports that Sage Stallone is a little angry that his father
didn't ask him to reprise the role of son, Rocky Jr/Robert,
in Rocky Balboa. Stallone is going to
recast the character.
"When I asked him about turning down Rocky Jr. he said
the rumors were in fact NOT
TRUE. He's not on speaking terms with his father because of
a film about an aging actor he directed called
"Vic" which Sly felt was mocking the state of HIS
career at the time. The real truth about Sage not acting is
that he just never got a phone call. A few weeks had gone by
since the greenlight of Rocky VI and still no word from his
dad so he decided to call himself. After one week of Sly's
answering service telling him his father wasn't home, he
finally gave up. I really felt like crap when he told me
this, and worse, how it all ended. It was Sage's mother who
ultimately gave him the bad news. Instead of a phone call
from Sly."
