Sylvester Stallone, the legendary Hollywood icon, has stunned everyone by walking away from a massive $1 billion movie project because he couldn’t stand his co-star’s behavior. Yep, you heard it right—Sly backed out of a lucrative deal with George Clooney, labeling Clooney a total CREEP. In a candid interview, Stallone didn’t hold back, saying, “I just couldn’t take it anymore.” He described Clooney as showing up to every meeting in a fancy suit with an “I’m-so-full-of-myself smile,” comparing him to a “human LinkedIn profile.”
Stallone, known for his macho persona, couldn’t handle Clooney’s level of self-obsession. He even quipped, “Have you ever seen the way he looks at himself? It’s like he’s trying to flirt with his own reflection. I didn’t sign up to work with someone who’s in love with their own face—what a self-obsessed creep.”
Clooney’s team, of course, denied the accusations, defending their “talented and charming” star. But some sources close to the project confirmed Stallone’s claims, leaving Clooney’s team scrambling for cover. For Stallone, working with Clooney felt like dealing with a “snake oil salesman,” someone who would charm the room and then ruin the script. Stallone remarked, “This isn’t a UNICEF commercial, it’s an action movie!”
Things reached a boiling point when Clooney suggested doing a scene where he saves the world while making a martini. Stallone was dumbfounded, saying, “Come on, bro, this isn’t James Bond; it’s a hard-hitting thriller.” Clooney, with a wink, responded, “Trust me, Sly, I’ve got this.”
Stallone also called out Clooney’s hypocrisy, criticizing Hollywood celebrities who lecture others on morality while living in luxury. “Just because you’ve got a few Oscars doesn’t mean you’re above the rest of us,” Stallone said.
Ultimately, Stallone chose to uphold his artistic values rather than cash in on the high-paying project. He declared, “I’d rather punch a bear in the face than work with someone who makes me feel like I need a shower after every meeting.”
Now, the big-budget project is in jeopardy, all because of Clooney’s alleged creepiness. But Stallone feels a sense of satisfaction, knowing he didn’t compromise his principles for money. Meanwhile, Clooney is reportedly moving on to a new film where he plays a charming, talented actor who saves the world with a smile—basically a movie about himself.
So, who’s in Clooney’s corner for this one? Maybe his buddy Obama can produce it. Good luck with the self-obsession, George. So, are you Team Stallone or Team Clooney? Let us know in the comments! Stay tuned!
