š„ Hollywood WARZONE: Sylvester Stallone Exposes 5 Actors He Despised Working With š±š
Sylvester Stallone has always been a straight-shooter.
Whether in press junkets, interviews, or even on social media, heās never shied away from saying exactly whatās on his mind.
But in a recent appearance on a high-profile podcast, the Hollywood legend went nuclearālisting off five actors he says he would ānever share a set with again.
The question came unexpectedly from the host: āYouāve worked with a ton of peopleāwho were the worst?ā Stallone chuckled at first, but then leaned forward and, in true Rocky Balboa fashion, dropped a haymaker: āThere are five guys Iād rather go 12 rounds with than work with again.
1.Richard Gere
No surprises here.
The long-rumored tension between Stallone and Richard Gere allegedly dates back to the 1974 film The Lords of Flatbush.
According to Stallone, Gereās ego was āout of controlā even then.
āWe were just starting out, but he acted like he was a superstar already,ā Stallone said.
āHe was disrespectful to everyone, even the crew.
I told the producers: āItās him or me.
ā And they chose me.
ā Gere was eventually replaced.
āThat guy had no sense of teamwork,ā Sly added.
āJust arrogance.
2.Bruce Willis
This one stings for action fans.
Stallone and Willis were famously part of The Expendables franchise, but according to Stallone, the off-screen relationship imploded fast.
āWe were friends once, but greed killed it,ā Stallone said.
He claims Willis demanded a staggering fee for just a few days of work on Expendables 3.
āFour million for four days? I said no way.
He was out.Done.ā Stallone even took a swipe on social media back then, calling Willis ālazy and greedy.
ā Now, years later, he doubled down: āHe was all about the money.
The passion was gone.
3.Steven Seagal
If Hollywood had a Hall of Fame for inflated egos, Stallone says Seagal would be first-ballot.
āThe guy thought he was untouchable.
Like he really was a deadly weapon,ā Stallone said.
āHe didnāt respect the stuntmen, he belittled people, and his attitude was toxic.
ā Stallone claimed that he once tried to extend an olive branch, hoping to include Seagal in the early days of The Expendables.
āHe laughed like he was above it.
I never called again.
4.Dolph Lundgren (Once⦠but theyāve since reconciled)
This entry comes with a twist.
While Stallone and Lundgren have since become close friends, their early working relationshipāparticularly during Rocky IVāwas almost explosive.
āDolph hit me so hard during one take, I ended up in the ICU for four days,ā Stallone revealed.
āI told him I hated him in that moment.
I thought he was trying to kill me.
ā The tension was real, but time (and a few more films together) healed the wounds.
āWeāre good now,ā Stallone said.
āBut back then? I couldnāt even look at him.
5.Wesley Snipes
Their on-screen clash in Demolition Man made for blockbuster magic, but Stallone says the behind-the-scenes experience was anything but smooth.
āWesley was difficult,ā he admitted.
āHe refused to come out of his trailer.
He didnāt want to rehearse.
He was constantly arguing with directors.
It was exhausting.
ā Stallone also hinted at deeper ego clashes, saying Snipes āwanted to be top dogā on set, despite Stallone being the clear lead.
āHe thought he was making Wesley Snipes: The Movie.
I was like, dudeāweāre in this together.
The podcast episode instantly went viral, with fans and critics flooding forums, Reddit threads, and X (formerly Twitter) to debate the fallout.
Some applauded Stalloneās honesty, while others questioned whether publicly naming names was wise in todayās ultra-sensitive Hollywood.
But if you know anything about Sly, you know he doesnāt do filtered.
When asked if he regrets any of those experiences, Stallone replied with signature grit: āNo.
You learn who people really are when the cameras arenāt rolling.
Iād rather take a punch in the ring than waste time on fake friendships.
Still, Stallone also made it clear that not all of his co-stars were nightmares.
He praised longtime collaborators like Arnold Schwarzenegger (āultimate professionalā), Jason Statham (ānever complains, always deliversā), and even Mr.
T (āintense but committedā).
āYou can work with strong personalities, but you canāt work with toxic ones,ā he said.
So what now? Will any of the named actors respond? Will Hollywood ice Stallone for going scorched earth? Or will this moment only add to the legend of a man whoās always been more street fighter than sweet talker?
One thingās certain: Stallone didnāt just pull punches in the ringāheās not pulling them now, either.
And in a town built on faƧades, his brutal honesty might be the most refreshing (and dangerous) thing we’ve seen in years.
