Arnold Schwarzenegger revealed how he and his agent ultimately tricked Sylvester Stallone and his agent into taking a movie he predicted would flop.
Arnold Schwarzenegger had a little slyness up his sleeve in the early ‘90s when he was trying to usurp Sylvester Stallone as the more famous action star. In an upcoming special, 'TMZ Presents Arnold & Sly: Rivals, Friends, Icons,' the former governor of California and legendary 'Terminator' actor sits down alongside the 'Rocky' mogul to reveal how he tricked Stallone into taking a part in the 1992 film, 'Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot.
First of all, when we talk about the movie, I didn't talk him into because I never talked to him about it,' Schwarzenegger prefaced. 'But it was very clear that his agent was telling my agent, ‘Look, Sly is interested in doing it, but I don’t know if it's the right thing for him. Let me know what you guys are thinking.' And then my agent said, ‘Well you know, Arnold really loves it. I think it’s fantastic.
Oh my God, oh my God,' Stallone, 77, says, as Schwarzenegger recounted his process. Stallone says on camera that he hadn't known the intricacies of Schwarzenegger's plan. 'You talked to my director?' a stunned Stallone asked Schwarzenegger. 'Yeah,' Schwarzenegger said. 'Oh my God,' said Stallone. So my agent said 'Arnold is talking to Roger Spottiswoode now and he's really into it, I think we're gonna take the project.' And then of course agent, knowing that he's competitive with me, he said, ‘Cannot let that happen,'' Schwarzenegger continues. 'He then called the studio writer and says, ‘Look, you got to give this to Sly. Don’t give this to Schwarzenegger, you got to give this to Sly.' And they said fine. Sly got it,' Schwarzenegger shared.
