Sylvester Stallone est un acteur/réalisateur abonné aux films d’actions.

Sylvester, Enzio, Gardenzio Stallone est né à New York de parents italiens. Il passe une enfance assez difficile.

Le jeune garçon développe un caractère dure : il est renvoyé de 14 écoles différentes. A l’âge adulte, Sylvester Stallone est adepte de petits boulots.

Il décide un jour de prendre des cours d’art dramatique à Miami. De retour à New York, Sylvester Stallone va enchaîner les pièces mineures et les petites productions. Il ira même jusqu’à tourner un film érotique.

Puis, Sylvester Stallone a l’idée d’un scénario après un match de boxe entre le grand Mohammed Ali et Chuck Wepner. Il écrit l’histoire de Rocky Balboa, un boxeur minable qui se voit l’occasion de prouver ce qu’il vaut.

Conscient que ce qu’il tient est de l’or, Sylvester Stallone demande au producteur de lui donner le rôle principal de Rocky s’ils veulent son script. En 1976, le premier Rocky sort sur les écrans. A l’image du personnage, Stallone se retrouve propulsé sur le devant de la scène.

Rocky récolte trois Oscars cette année là, dont celui du meilleur film. Sylvester Stallone écrira les scénarios des cinq Rocky suivant. Tous explosent le box office, même s’ils ne sont pas forcément réussis.

Entre temps, il chausse sa casquette de réalisateur et produit Staying Alive avec John Travolta.

L’autre rôle qui marque la carrière de Sylvester Stallone est Rambo. L’histoire d’un vétéran du Viet Nâm pris en grippe car il est le symbole de l’Amérique vaincue.

Une fois de plus c’est le succès, des Rambo succèdent à ce premier volet. Encore plus que le succès, le personnage de Rambo amène à Sylvester Stallone l’image d’un patriote.

Les années 1980 sont celles de Sylvester Stallone. Il fera bien d’autres films, mais qui passeront inaperçus. Comme son ami et rivale Arnold Schwarzenegger, il s’essaie à la comédie, puis au thriller (Les faucons de la nuit) et même à la comédie musicale (Rhistones).

Après cela, il rencontre une traversée du désert. Les films d’action mettant en scène des hommes bodybuildés ne sont plus de mode.

Sylvester Stallone lance alors son propre programme de telerealite. En 2006, Stallone reprend donc le rôle de Rocky Balboa coté de Milo Ventimiglia et renoue avec le succès.

En 2008, il est à l’affiche de rambo 4 pour une dernière aventure en Birmanie cette fois.

Sylvester Stallone has told how he changed the ending of breakthrough movie Rocky to leave audiences on a high.
Stallone, 80, who wrote the screenplay, said the film’s budget had been exhausted when he realised the original ending was too much of a downer.
It tells the story of an uneducated, working-class debt collector and part-time club boxer from Philadelphia who is unexpectedly given a once-in-a-lifetime shot to fight the world heavyweight champion.
The film ends after the fight climax.
Speaking on the Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, to promote his new autobiography titled The Steps, he said of the previous ending: “It's really interesting because at the very end, Rocky walks out and he's with Adrian and there's trash everywhere.
“People have seen the fight and had gone home and they're basically forgotten.
“Like 10 minutes later that moment passed and I was like, ‘This is kind of depressing. My God, wow.’ “Actually, the picture on the poster is that scene we're talking about, which is not even in the movie. “I begged the producer. I said, ‘We got to end on a high note.’ “He said, ‘We have no money.’ I said, ‘Well, we'll figure it out.’
“ We went out, went around, asked a few friends.
“Got about 12 people (as extras) and we couldn't even build a ring. We built maybe 10 feet. It's plywood and the ropes are sagging.
“We're like holding the ropes up. And then we just said, ‘Keep walking in a circle. Walk in a circle, walk in a circle.’ “And Rocky's, ‘Yo, get that thing out of my face.’ “And then Adrian comes in the ring and he goes, ‘Where's your hat?’ “And I went, ‘there it is’. “He doesn't care about the fight. He just cares about falling in love.
“And the music swells and they kiss.
"That was the peak of their life so I wanted to freeze on that second.” Picture supplied by JLPPA | 00771978
