Two superheroes of different eras met in one video that moved even a tough screen fighter.
The first “Rocky” movie was released in 1976, won three Oscars and instant recognition from millions around the world. The story of Rocky Balboa, a fighter who overcomes everything and, most of all, himself, resonated with the masses. Between 1976 and 1982, three movies of a classic trilogy solidified Stallone’s success. Eminem made his big appearance almost 20 years later, but behind his snarky veneer was beating the heart of the same unstoppable fighter.
And 20 more years later, new generations of fighters find inspiration in both Rocky and Slim.
Sylvester Stallone shared an edit from a Romanian Tik Tok fan account on his official Instagram. Iconic moments from the Rocky trilogy go well together with a legendary “Without Me” beat.
Sly clearly enjoyed this combination and invited 14.8 million of his followers to join the fun.
