Samaritan Proves That Some Superheroes Should Remain Retired: Review
The Pitch: You’ve heard of Superman. You’ve heard of the Punisher. You’ve even heard of Hancock, but you likely have never heard of Samaritan. However, Overlord director Julius Avery wants you to know his name. Adapted from the Mythos Comics series of the same name, this film centers around a young boy named Sam (Javon Walton) with a love for the titular long-thought-dead superhero named Samaritan. Sam has a hunch that the revered hero is still alive, but can’t really prove it as more than a fan theory. The legend goes that Samaritan went to battle with his equally strong yet villainous brother Nemesis over twenty-five years ago, both of them dying in the chaos. Without any real evidence that he’s right about Samaritan still being alive, Sam spends his time doodling, finding scrap metal to...
Sylvester Stallone’s Wife Filed for Divorce Because He Wanted Another Dog: Report
Before you think about bringing another pet into the family despite your partner’s wishes, think again. Sylvester Stallone’s wife, model Jennifer Flavin, reportedly filed for divorce after the couple disagreed over whether or not to get a new dog. TMZ reports that Stallone wanted to adopt a Rottweiler to help protect their family, but Flavin wasn’t into the idea — spurring a heated argument earlier this summer that apparently brought up a number of other issues between the couple. Sources told TMZ “none of those issues appeared to be marriage-enders,” although we think the timing is a little too convenient. Regardless, Stallone persisted and adopted a Rottweiler anyway. The pup, Dwight, shares a first name with Stallone’s character on the upcoming Paramount+ crime drama series Tulsa King.&...
Sylvester Stallone Plays an Exiled Mob Boss in Teaser Trailer for New Series Tulsa King: Watch
Sylvester Stallone plays a former mob boss who steps out of the penitentiary and into a new kind of prison in the teaser trailer for Tulsa King. Sly’s first recurring TV role debuts November 13th on Paramount+. Tulsa King comes stocked with the kind of writer’s room that usually brings the Emmys to their knees. The series was created by Taylor Sheridan, the don of the Yellowstone-verse, and boasts as its showrunner Terence Winter, award-winning scribe of The Sopranos, Boardwalk Empire, and Martin Scorsese’s The Wolf of Wall Street. Stallone stars as Dwight “The General” Manfredi, and as the trailer opens he’s just finished a 25-year prison stint. “I married this life,” he says, “And now, after keeping my mouth shut, I’m gonna see if it married me back.” He’s q...
Adele is Buying Sylvester Stallone’s L.A. Mansion
Cue the Rocky theme because Adele is on the move. According to a new report, the superstar siger has purchased the L.A. estate previously owned by Sylvester Stallone. Per TMZ, Adele is currently in escrow on the Rocky star’s mansion in Beverly Park — the ultra-exclusive gated community in Los Angeles with a 90210 zip code. Stallone originally bought the house in the 1990s. With six bedrooms, nine bathrooms, a gym, sauna, steam room, infinity pool, art studio, two-story guest house, private screening room, and more on 3.6 acres of land, it remains one of the largest properties in the elite, sought-after neighborhood.

Sylvester Stallone Sparks QAnon Speculation with Coded Selfie
Could Sylvester Stallone be a believer in QAnon? That’s what supporters of the fringe conspiracy movement are asking after the actor posted quite the telling selfie on Thursday via social media. “Heading Into the Storm…..” the Rocky star captioned the snap wearing a baseball hat emblazoned with the letter ‘Q’ while aboard a private jet. Aside from the obvious letter on the hat, the phrase “the Storm” is another notable QAnon reference, having gained popularity among the extremist alt-right movement as a reference to some future date when the ring of high-profile child abusers running the country — including members of the Hollywood glitterati and Democratic leaders — will be rounded up and arrested on the instruction of Donald Trump. Of course, “the Storm” has been prophesied by Q before, ...
Stallone’s Recut Rocky IV Has More Heart, But Less Charm: Review
The Pitch: In 1985, Rocky IV was released to box office success (netting $300 million, the most the series has ever earned), but critical derision. It’s no surprise, either; the film, which tracks Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone) as he seeks revenge against Russian superman Ivan Drago (Dolph Lundgren) for the death of his friend Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers), was the ultimate jump-the-shark moment for a series that had heretofore mixed taut boxing action with comparatively tamped-down character drama. It’s a thorn that’s clearly been stuck in Stallone’s paw for 35 years, and with the creative idleness that came with the COVID-19 pandemic, 2020 seemed as good a time as any to pick it back up and revisit it. And so, we have Rocky IV: Rocky vs. Drago – The Director’s Cut, a dra...
Sylvester Stallone to Reissue Rocky IV as Rocky vs. Drago: The Ultimate Director’s Cut
Rocky IV is ready to go another round: Sylvester Stallone and MGM have announced Rocky vs. Drago: The Ultimate Director’s Cut, an expanded release that comes with 40 additional minutes of footage. It will be shown in select theaters for one night only on November 11th before becoming available for streaming rentals on November 12th. Written, directed, and starring Sly Stallone, Rocky IV became the biggest box office hit of the franchise when it stepped into the ring in 1985. By framing the story as a battle between America and the USSR, it tapped into Cold War fears, while boasting one of Carl Weathers’ most iconic performances, and introducing the world to Swedish ass-kicker extraordinaire Dolph Lundgren. In addition to 40 additional minutes of never-before-seen footage, a ...

James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad Gets Surprise Second Trailer: Watch
April Fool’s Day has been full of the suspected pranks and goofs, but this is no joke. James Gunn has shared another trailer for The Suicide Squad that features loads of new footage from the upcoming blockbuster. This new preview arrives less than a week after Warner Bros. unleashed the film’s R-rated trailer on audiences last Friday, which is an usual amount of successive promotion for a movie of this caliber. Either way, audiences surely won’t be complaining because this new trailer is stuffed with sneak-peaks of the highly-anticipated entry in the DC Extended Universe. Whereas the last trailer focused on film’s primary Squad members (like Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn and Idris Elba’s as Bloodsport), this one makes room for a whole slew of kooky side-characters like King Shark, Weas...
