“No, guys! You don’t understand. I wrote this for me…I Play Rocky!”
Amazon MGM Studios has released three new film clips highlighting Sylvester Stallone’s battle to star in his own movie, after writing the screenplay for himself.
The new clip titled ‘I Wrote This For Me‘, captures the high-stakes meeting where a young, broke, and unknown Sylvester Stallone (Anthony Ippolito) drops the ultimate condition on producers Irwin Winkler (Toby Kebbell) and Robert Chartoff (P.J. Byrne): “I wrote this for me. I play Rocky.”
Studio executives want the screenplay, but they refuse to risk a million-dollar production on an unproven actor. This tense scene captures the exact moment the studio declares they cannot make a deal with Stallone—setting up one of the greatest gamble stories in cinema history.
In The ‘Training’ film clip, after having staked his entire career on playing Rocky Balboa himself, a broke and determined Sylvester Stallone (Anthony Ippolito) undergoes grueling physical conditioning to transform into a real fighter—recreating the legendary 1976 training sequences from sparring in the gym and punching frozen meat to running through the streets of Philadelphia!
In this iconic audition scene, ‘Meeting Carl Weathers‘, Stephan James makes an unforgettable entrance as a young Carl Weathers—stepping into the room with Sylvester Stallone (Anthony Ippolito), director John G. Avildsen (Jay Duplass), and producers Irwin Winkler (P.J. Byrne) and Robert Chartoff (Toby Kebbell) to unleash Apollo Creed’s legendary trash talk and lock down the role of a lifetime!
I Play Rocky is now in theaters.
