Topic: News More ROCKY VI News! UPDATED!
By Charley on October 16, 2005 6:43 PM

Last week we told you that Sylvester Stallone was all set to direct and star in the sixth installment of the "Rocky" series, which he also wrote. Well, The Hollywood Reporter clued us in to some more details about the upcoming production, like the basic storyline and the tentative title. Come check it! UPDATE: Potential opponent for Balboa?!

"Rocky Balboa" is the working title, which is what Stallone titled the script, according to the article. Nothing too exciting there.

As for plot, trite is right, apparently:

In the new installment, Rocky, lonely and retired in Philadelphia, comes out of retirement, intending to fight a few low-profile local fights. He's approached to fight a match with reigning heavyweight champ Mason "The Line" Dixon, and soon his comeback ignites a media firestorm.

Comes out of retirement? Why didn't we think of that?

UPDATE:
Variety reports that Roy Jones Jr. is in talks to co-star in the film as Rocky's opponent, Mason Dixon.

Meanwhile, BoxingTalk.net is reporting that light heavyweight champion Antonio Tarver is in talks to go head to head with Sly.

I hope whoever plays the part knows how to pull his punches.

It depresses the hell out of me to see a writer with Stalone’s potential further degrade himself with this kind of crap. What a wasted life.
