Hes played Rambo and Rocky, but actor Sylvester Stallone insists that hes nothing like his on-screen personas in real life.
London, Jan 23 : He's played Rambo and Rocky, but actor Sylvester Stallone insists that he's nothing like his on-screen personas in real life.
The actor, appearing on Brit comic Craig Ferguson's US chat show, told the audience that he was a big softie.
"I'm a tiny fairy," The Sun quoted him, as saying.
And, he also admitted that he would like nothing more than to play the romantic lead in a sequel to the hit movie 'Notting Hill' which saw Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts starring in the lead roles.
Stallone will now be seen on the big screen in the new 'Rambo' movie that has been shot in Burma.
The film, simply called Rambo, finds the cynical Vietnam veteran leading a solitary life in the mountains and jungles of northern Thailand. His peaceful retirement is shattered however when a group of human rights missionaries seek him out and ask him to guide them into Burma to deliver medical supplies.
The new Rambo movie follows the successful revival of another hit Stallone character from the Eighties - Rocky, whom he brought out of retirement in 2006.
And Sly admitted that his desire to revisit both Rocky and Rambo was partly borne out of his dissatisfaction with the last installments of both series. But he claims Rocky and Rambo are very different men.
