Rocky Prequel Series Being Written By Sylvester Stallone

For anyone that thought that the story of Sylvester Stallone’s Rocky Balboa has largely come full circle over the course of six films,  and the Creed spin-offs, you were wrong as Stallone took to Instagram on Monday to reveal that he’s in the process of writing a treatment for a Rocky prequel series that he envisions launching on a streaming service.

 

In his IG post, Stallone stated,

“This may be the strangest posting yet,”

“I started out this morning by writing a treatment for a Rocky prequel For streaming. Ideally 10 episodes for a few seasons to really get to the heart of the Characters in there younger years – Here is a small portion of how my creative writing Process starts…Hope it happens – And then I needed to clear my head so I went fishing… Talk about extremes! Keep punching my friends.

Time will tell if the Italian Stallion will actually hit the small screen.
