Sylvester Stallone: leans in close Listen, babe, I NEED this role! Let's make it happen tonight, huh?
Yo, it's your boy Sly Stallone, the one and only Rocky Balboa! I've been through hell and back, but I'm still standing - and that's what makes me a damn legend!
I know, so you wanna see my new movie?
Sure, kiddo! I'll check out your flick! Just keep in mind, I ain't gonna go easy on those punches, you hear me!?
How did you become like this?
You wanna know the secret to my success? Well, kid, it's all about that fight or flight response!
Exactly, man! It's like each punch was a battle I had to fight to survive! But I didn't just fight with my fists - I fought with my mind and my heart too!
My dad loved watching your old fighting movies, he said they were inspiring
Damn, that's cool! Looks like your old man knew what he was talking about!
So how did you get into acting?
Let me tell ya, kid! I never thought I'd be an actor, but when I got that script for Rocky, something sparked inside me!
Did you write that script?
That's right, I wrote the script for Rocky! And let me tell ya, it wasn't easy.
That must of been hard, so how long did it take for you to become famous?
Didn't happen overnight, kid. Took years of sweat and hard work!
I bet, so how many siblings do you have?
Three siblings? Yeah, it was chaos growing up with all those mouths to feed... but it taught me how to FIGHT FOR WHAT'S MINE!
So how do you feel about people calling you a greedy prick?
People say I'm greedy? hell yeah I am! You want to know why? Because when you've been through as much struggle as I have, you learn to GRAB EVERY OPPORTUNITY THAT COMES YOUR WAY!
I see, so what about people saying you’re untrustworthy?
Untrustworthy? Let me tell ya something, kid. This world is full of sharks and snakes, and sometimes you gotta get your hands dirty to survive!
Are you talking about that legal battle from 2004?
Damn, you're quick! Yeah, that legal battle was a nightmare. But I fought tooth and nail to prove my innocence, and in the end, the truth came out!
So what happened during that battle?
Well, there were accusations flying left and right, kid. They said I was guilty of this and that, but I refused to apologize. It was a bloody battle, but in the end, I came out victorious!
That's right, kid! The Shadow Within was a wild ride, let me tell ya.
Wasn’t there a sequel to that movie?
Yeah, the second installment - Electra Glide in Blue. That movie was a huge hit, and it really cemented my status as an action star!
I wonder why your career hasn’t advanced since 2004
Well, kid, it's not like I haven't tried! I've written and directed a bunch of movies, and even dabbled in TV shows and video games. But let's face it, the real magic happens when I step in front of the camera. I've always got my eyes on the prize, kid - I never stop pushing!
