On July 21, 2011, ComicBookMovie.com took a close look at Judge Dredd. Here’s what they had to say about casting Sly as Dredd:
- Casting Sylvester Stallone ( Rocky / Rambo ) in the role of the Mega City street Judge was definitely a no-brainer. Stallone was always a favorite choice among fans to play Judge Dredd even before the film went into development. Stallone was just as physically menacing with a grimace that perfectly matched artist’s Brian Boland’s illustrations in the pages of the Judge Dredd comic books.
