Sly Signs 2-Film Deal

Gregg Goldstein of The Hollywood Reporter, in a story published today, announced that Sly has signed “a lucrative deal to direct and star in two action films with his ‘Rambo’ producers Danny Dimbort, Avi Lerner and Trevor Short of Nu Image/Millennium Films.” Several scripts are being considered and the ones selected are expected to be fast-tracked into production.

Rambo in Spain

Hello Craig,

Last week I was in Spain for a holiday. I was in the shopping center Miramar in a place called Fuengirola (near Malaga) when I saw this cool stand for the John Rambo movie at the cinema. Really cool! Maybe you can use this for your great Stallone website?
Regards,
Hein
