Sly in Fat Actors Prestige Club

Craig / / 2008, Cop Land
Gawker.com has an article about actors who have gained weight for roles. Included in the list are: Matt Damon, Russell Crowe, Ryan Gosling, Jared Leto, George Clooney, Robert DeNiro, Vincent D’Onofrio and of course Sly. Here’s what they had to say about Sly:

Sylvester Stallone in Copland Rocky Balboa gained about 40lbs to play a sad-sack New Jersey policeman in this quiet thriller that was meant to revive his acting career. While Stallone and the movie were both quite good, they went mostly unnoticed and disappeared into film history. Stallone since bulked back up and recently played a 60-year-old John Rambo.
