Stallone and Schwarzenegger in film stand off

Hollywood's screen rivals --Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger are likely to clash over the title of the next Rambo movie. The script for the latest installment in the action series is complete and has been named as Rambo: The Last Stand.


And the former Californian governor, who is set to make his action return in the similarly titled Last Stand is likely to have a clash over the same title, reported Sun online. The Terminator star announced the movie in April and now Rambo screenwriter Sean Hood has revealed the script for the fifth movie is complete, although Stallone is yet to commit.

"I recently finished a first draft of Rambo: Last Stand for Millennium films, based on a story idea by Sylvester Stallone. Hopefully, Stallone will eventually have the time and the inclination to do another Rambo. I met with Stallone twice last year. He gave me a book, an older screenplay, and about twenty pages he'd written himself to use as inspiration for the last chapter of the Rambo saga. It's more in line with the small-town thriller of First Blood," said Hood.

Before embarking on their respective shoots, the aging action heroes will be working together on the sequel to last year's hit movie The Expendables.

Sylvester Stallone's father Frank Sr dies, aged 91

Sylvester Stallone's father Frank Sr has died at the age of 91.

Frank Sr passed away in Wellington, Florida earlier this week after a battle with prostate cancer, according to the Palm Beach Post.

The Stallone family have yet to comment on Frank's passing.

Frank is survived by his five children and wife Kathleen.

Sylvester has lent his voice to the comedy Zookeeper, which is now playing in US cinemas and opens in the UK on July 29.

Sylvester Stallone inducted into International Boxing Hall of Fame without a fight!

Actor Sylvester Stallone has added one more feather to his cap.

The star has been inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame - even though he has never had a fight.

He was honoured for the contribution his series of ‘Rocky’ films have made to the sport.

Stallone, 64, won an Oscar for his original 1976 movie about an underdog boxer who gets a title fight. It spawned five sequels.

"I never pretended to be a boxer, but I have an understanding of what goes on outside the ring,” the Sun quoted him as saying at the New York ceremony.

Ex-heavyweight boxing champ Mike Tyson, 44, was also inducted into the Hall of Fame.

Stallone named pen brand ambassador

Sylvester Stallone has been announced as the new brand ambassador for Italian pen company Montegrappa.

The actor - who will also serve as investor and creative advisor - has become owner of a large part of the brand under the deal, reports TradeArabia.com.

Montegrappa CEO Guiseppe Aquila said: "I have had the pleasure of meeting Stallone on many occasions, including the 2009 Venice Film Festival, where he was recognised for his filmmaking with the 'Glory To The Filmmaker Award'.

"Stallone is much more than a friend - he is an icon and an artist and now, an integral part of Montegrappa's distinguished history."

Stallone is said to have become a fan of the company's writing instrument over 15 years ago.

Sylvester Stallone to enter Bigg Boss 4?

You can expect all the unexpected things to happen in Colors' reality show 'Bigg Boss 4'! The first surprise for the house mates in this season was the entry of 'The Great Khali' and then came the drama queen Dolly Bindra, who took the house on fire with her weird activities and fights.

Now, the house is celebrating some peaceful moments after the exit of the loud lady Dolly Bindra.

In the meantime, the house got two days to relax and have fun with former 'Baywatch' star Pamela Anderson, who entertained the housemates with her 'Dhak Dhak' performance. Now, it's time for some action! So, the talk is on to bring the 'Rambo' star Sylvester Stallone as the second international celebrity guest in the Bigg Boss house.

If everything goes well, then we will get to watch Sylvester Stallone inside the Bigg Boss house for few days. So, we can expect another great gym session of Ashmit, Hrishant and Khali with this Rambo star. However, what about the female housemates of Bigg Boss 4? How will they react seeing the macho man?

If Sylvester Stallone enters the show before this week's elimination then he will have to save himself from Pakistani actress Veena Malik, who is ready to go to any extent to seduce even a flop actor like Ashmit Patel! So, if she sees a Hollywood star like Stallone, we can't imagine how will she react and at what extent she will go to impress him!

Sara Khan and other female housemates like Shweta Tiwari and Seema Parihar have control over their hormones and they behave in a rather mature way in such conditions but Veena Malik is sure to show her antics!
