“Avenging Angelo” Update from Director Martyn Burke
From Dark Horizons: MARTYN BURKE, director of “Avenging Angelo,” is quoted…
“Just got back from Toronto where they’re setting up locations for the film which will star among others, SYLVESTER STALLONE and probably ANDY GARCIA, ANTHONY QUINN and a leading lady who they’re still in the process of casting. Right now they’re leaning toward MADELINE STOWE. It was a real departure for STALLONE – which was the reason it appealed to me. Shooting begins in late Feb and then moves to Sicily for a couple of weeks to finish in May.”

Sly in Your Future
I wanted to give everyone a “heads-up’ on a couple of places that you’ll find Stallone in the near future.
VANITY FAIR’S HOLLYWOOD is the title of a new book that serves up a collection of photos, essays, and caricatures from the magazine’s 86 year history. Look for Sly to appear in a picture with Brigitte Nielsen in the section of celebrity couples. The book will retail for $50 from Viking Studio.
The third issue of TOTAL MOVIE goes on sale January 9th and looks to be something that all STALLONE fans will want. The issue will contain a feature called “ROCKY AT 25” which will celebrate the anniversary with the “ultimate guide to the Italian Stallion, and a look forward to the elusive “Rocky VI.”- Craig Zablo (November 18, 2000)

UNIVERSAL DROPS “EYE SEE YOU” LINK
Universal has taken down any mention of “Eye See You” (aka “D-Tox”) from their front page and a search of their site brought up nothing about the movie either.
