Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger Beef

Sylvester Stallone & Arnold Schwarzenegger speaking at the 2012 San Diego Comic-Con International in San Diego, California.

The Schwarzenegger–Stallone rivalry is a rivalry between American actor Sylvester Stallone and Austrian-American actor Arnold Schwarzenegger.^[1] The rivalry went on for almost two decades.^[2]

The two actors first met each other in the 1977 Golden Globe ceremony, where Stallone had been nominated for Best Actor, while Schwarzenegger was nominated for New Star of the Year. Due to an event in the ceremony Stallone allegedly threw a bowl of flowers at Schwarzenegger.^[3] Stallone later spoke out in an interview with Variety, that Arnold laughed at him when he lost the award, while Arnold won.^[4] He said that - "from that moment even our DNA hated each other".

In Twins, Schwarzenegger made fun of a Rambo poster, that he sees on the wall. Stallone responded in the movie Tango & Cash, in which he beat up a man, who looked like Schwarzenegger. Stallone later admitted that he imagined Schwarzenegger while shooting the scene. ^[5] In Last Action Hero, a Terminator 2 poster was shown with Stallone's face, and Schwarzenegger pretended to compliment him.^[6]

In an interview with Jimmy Fallon, Stallone stated that Schwarzenegger once tricked him to do a terrible movie - Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot. ^{[7] [8]} Schwarzenegger later admitted the statement in an interview with Jimmy Kimmel.^{[9] [10]}

He said:

I read the script, and it was a piece of sh*t. Let's be honest. I say to myself, 'I'm not going to do this movie...' Then they went to Sly, and Sly called me (and asked), 'have they ever talked to you about doing this movie?' And I said, 'yes, I was thinking about doing it. This is a really brilliant idea, this movie.' When he heard that, because he was in competition, he said, 'Whatever it takes, I'll do the movie.' And of course the movie went major into the toilet.^[9]

The rivalry ended in the late 1990s, when both actors' impact on the box office had reduced significantly, and they began to view each less as rivals.^[11] Schwarzenegger also invited Stallone for various inaugurations, during his time as the Governor of California. The pair also starred in three movies together: The Expendables 2, The Expendables 3 and Escape Plan. ^{[11] [12]}
