On October 3, 2012, TooFab posted a gallery of shots of Winona Ryder on location for the filming of Homefront.  Here are a couple of tidbits:

  •  The 40-year-old actress was snapped on the set of her next movie with Jason Statham, “Homefront,” looking sexy with a tight leather jacket…  The Sylvester Stallone-penned movie is only the next step in a return to the spotlight for Ryder, who has been keeping a relatively low profile since her ’80s/late ’90s heyday.

Sly’s in Arnold’s Army by Randy Jennings

Craig / / 2012, Celebs


Randy Jennings is a die-hard Arnold Schwarzenegger fan.  Randy runs the TheArnoldFans, the #1 Arnold Schwarzenegger fan site in the world.

Why am I writing about Randy and Arnold here, you ask?  (And I’m glad you did.)  Because Randy is also a Stallone fan and my guess is that Randy’s new book, Arnold’s Army will appeal to Stallone fans as well as those of the Austrian Oak. 

Randy provides an entire chapter to the Stallone – Schwarzenegger feud that ran for years.  Randy also covers the subsequent friendship of the two action superstars, Arnold’s appearance in The Expendables and Expendables II and his co-starring role with Sly in The Tomb. 

I’ve had the good fortune to get an advance look at Arnold’s Army and give it a thumb’s up. – Craig

On September 21, 2012, Vulture shared a story making the rounds about The Time Javier Bardem Asked Sylvester Stallone for Acting Advice.

Bardem and his brother were at a Hollywood party. Bardem was still a virtual unknown actor in the United States.  After working up the nerve Bardem approached Sly and asked for acting advice…

Stallone paused and then said, “Never forget about the money.”  – Craig

On September 21, 2012, Digital Spy posted Kate Bosworth Joins James Franco in Homefront. If you’re wondering why this news is appearing on the SZ, it’s because the movie is Homefront with a script by Sly, who is also on board as a producer. – Craig

Craig / / 2012, Celebs, Expendables 3


According to Channel 24, Clint Eastwood recently was asked he if was considering a role in The Expendables 3 and he replied…

  • “Probably not. I’m probably more apt to direct something. Maybe I’ll direct Expendables 3.

My guess is that Mr. Eastwood’s tongue was planted firmly in his cheek, but it would be pretty cool to his take on The Expendables. – Craig
