Sylvester Stallone Officially Lands His Own Reality Show

We know Sylvester Stallone as a man of the movies. He’s had an incredible career in Hollywood, with his leading role in the sports drama ‘Rocky’ films something that he will forever be remembered for. However, it seems that Stallone may now be swapping the big screen for the small one with reports that he’s scored a new TV gig.

Interestingly, it seems this role is one that many people may not have seen coming, given that it’s not for some showstopping action series. No, apparently Sylvester Stallone has landed his own reality show. While the Hollywood icon might not seem like an obvious reality TV star, it appears he’s ready to give the world an insight into his life that they’ve never seen before.

Fans weren’t necessarily thrilled when they heard about Stallone’s new show

When news broke of Sylvester Stallone’s new gig, there was a lot of surprise from fans. Unfortunately, most of that surprise turned into disappointment and criticism of the Hollywood icon. Reality TV has a certain reputation, and it seems many people felt like the actor was letting himself and his fans down by becoming a part of it. While this might certainly seem like an unusual choice for a man like Stalone, though, this series isn’t necessarily a bad move for him. As he’s said himself, he’s not doing it because he’s in financial trouble but because he wants to. Plus, it comes with an opportunity to do something that Stallone’s been missing out on for so many years now.

The reality show is an opportunity for the actor to bond with his family

As the name of the reality series - ‘The Family Stallone’ - indicates, this show isn’t just going to be about the Hollywood star. It will also revolve around his wife - Jennifer Flavin - and their daughters, Sophia, Sistine, and Scarlet. For Sylvester, this show will be an excellent chance to work with his loved ones and bond in a way that hasn’t always been possible. After all, when you’re a big Hollywood movie star, you don’t always have the chance to spend time with the people you care about. Stallone seemed to allude to that when discussing the criticism of the show, indicating that he’s running out of time to make memories with the important women in his life.

The reality series comes months after Stallone and his wife split then reunited

According to Sylvester Stallone, this new reality series will be “the ultimate home movie.” However, it may also prove to be family therapy. It was only in August that Jennifer Flavin revealed she had filed for divorce from the actor before the two reconciled a month later. Evidently, there are things the pair need to work through, and the reality series may force them to do that. It may also provide a heaping helping of drama that viewers of these sorts of shows often look out for. Hopefully, though, any issues will be resolved by working on ‘The Family Stallone’ and not exacerbated by it. If Stallone wants this series to become a recurring project in his life, splitting from his wife is the last thing he needs.

We shouldn’t have too much longer to wait for this insight into the life of Sylvester Stallone and his loved ones. ‘The Family Stallone’ is set to arrive on Paramount+ this spring, with a trailer for the show already available online.
