With his sculpted physique and brooding good looks, Sylvester Stallone remains the quintessential movie star. In this biography—based on exclusive interviews with Stallone, his outspoken mother, his second wife, and a host of fellow celebrities and friends—this most private of public figures is revealed. Frank Sanello looks not only at Stallone's personal life, which fans will find as compelling as any of his action pictures, but also at his film career, from cartoon icon to failed comic actor to re-energized action hero. Frank Sanello has written biographies of Sharon Stone, Tom Cruise, Eddie Murphy, Will Smith, and Steven Spielberg. A former film critic for the
Los Angeles Daily News, his work has also appeared in
The Washington Post, the
Los Angeles Times, and
People.
