Stallone: 'I missed my daughters and wife'

Hollywood actor Sylvester Stallone  (75) will also appear in the fourth installment of ‘The Mercenary’, which recently ended filming. He recently announced on social media that he is leaving this popular film franchise, and one of the reasons is his connection to his family.

Namely, the most hateful part of making films for the actor is saying goodbye to his wife and daughters. So he recently posted a family photo with a touching description on his Instagram profile.

"While doing things in your life, it is most difficult to say goodbye to your family for a long time. It never gets easier. Preparing to return to work I already miss my beautiful daughters and a fantastic wife. Just keep ‘hitting’, kids, Daddy will be back soon" Stallone wrote honestly with a photo with his daughters.

The actor received a lot of positive reactions from fans, and the photo gathered more than 440 thousand likes.

'Idol, you have three beautiful daughters', 'Happy family is the most beautiful', 'Respect for the best father', 'You are a genius' the fans wrote.

The actor has been married for many years to former model  Jennifer Flavin  (53). They have three daughters: Sistine Rose  (23), Sophia  (25), and Scarlet (19). Stallone once stated that he was the only man in the house.

"Everything in my house is female. Toys, maid, all dogs. One dog is sexually neutral. I'm next. But I never had fun again. It took me 19 years to realize that a woman is always right, ” Sylvester said.

Recall, Jason Statham (54) and Sylvester Stallone (75) will appear alongside several other new cast members in the fourth sequel to ‘Expendables’. In 2010, Stallone brought together some of the biggest names of the action genre in the first part of the franchise, such as Statham, Jet Li, and Mickey Rourke. 

The plot of the film entails a team of elite mercenaries trying to overthrow the Latin American dictator. Stallone wrote two more sequels and after the first one, he resigned from the directorial position. 

Sylvester Stallone suffered fourteen injuries on the set of the first part of ‘The Expendables’, including a broken tooth, a broken ankle, and a fracture in the neck that required surgical insertion of a metal plate. He also got bronchitis and herpes during filming.

The second part of ‘Expendables’ came out in 2012 and the third two years later. All three films were a great success at the box office and each sequel gathered more and more legendary stars.

The second part starred  Chuck Norris, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Bruce Willis, and Arnold Schwarzenegger, and the third film included Antonio Banderas, Wesley Snipes, Kelsey Grammer, Mel Gibson, and Harrison Ford. 

Lionsgate has officially confirmed that the fourth part of ‘Expendables‘ is being filmed, and in addition to Statham and Stallone, Megan Fox, Tony Jaa, and rapper 50 Cent will also star in it. Production will begin this fall, but a release date has not yet been set.

Stallone has been the main character of action films for eight decades, and two years ago he starred in the fifth sequel to ‘Rambo’. He then announced that he would be starring in more films in the next few years.
