Sylvester Stallone: Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis Have Big Egos

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Action, Celebrity Gossip,

Bruce Willis with Sylvester Stallone and Arnold SchwarzeneggerSylvester Stallone can't spend too much time with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bruce Willis because of they all have big egos.

The actor says when he and his fellow action movie veterans meet up, they quickly realize their hectic schedules aren't the sole reason why their reunions are so rare:

"People think Arnie and Bruce and me hang out all the time but because of our work projects we may not talk for a year. Then, all of a sudden, we get together and realize there is a reason we don't get together; too many egos in the room! So we say, 'See you in a year, have to go regroup.'"

Although the blockbuster trio might not train together as much as people may expect, Sylvester admitted he has had to teach himself how to "work out economically" to get in the best shape for his film roles. "Over the past 30 years I've learned how to work out economically. I would use the home gym and I would focus on what I call the movie body parts; instead of doing the whole body I would focus on what the cameras needed. No one cares what your ankles look like, right?" he admitted.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Divorce, Features,

Sharon StoneSharon Stone thinks that it is "easy" to only blame Arnold Schwarzenegger for his affair.

The Lovelace actress is good friends with the action movie icon, and feels he cannot be solely held responsible after he had an affair - and fathered love child Joseph, 15 - with their housekeeper Mildred Baena while still with his ex-wife Maria Shriver.

"Whatever happened in their [Arnold and Maria's] home was happening with both of them. It's a terrible thing - and it's easy to say 'Oh, it's just something that he did,' but this took place in their home, over a decade. It happened with both of them," she said.

Despite this, Sharon did reveal she was "disappointed" with the revelation of the Last Stand star's affair: "I have a very frank relationship with Arnold. Was I disappointed? Who wasn't? Nobody is excited when people betray themselves and their families. No one goes, 'Yay, good for you.'"

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Features,

Arnold SchwarzeneggerArnold Schwarzenegger was an "expert at living in denial" with his wife.

The Expendables 2 actor - whose 25-year marriage to Maria Shriver came to an end following revelations he had fathered a child with their housekeeper - admits he concealed many things from his family, including the fact he was to undergo major heart surgery and that he planned to run for the post of Governor of California.

"That's the way I handle things. And it always has worked. But, I mean it does not - it's not the best thing for people around me because I sometimes - some information I just keep to myself."

Arnold claims his behavior was as a result of his days as a body-builder when he believed emotions could make a person lose. "I became an expert in living in denial," he added on 60 Minutes.

Brigitte Nielsen and Arnold SchwarzeneggerArnold Schwarzenegger had an affair with Brigitte Nielsen shortly before she wed Sylvester Stallone. The philandering actor has revealed he had a steamy fling with the actress - who was once married to his good pal Sylvester - during the early years of his relationship with now ex-wife Maria Shriver.

Arnold has confessed to having an affair with the Danish actress while he was dating Maria in his new autobiography, according to TMZ. He wrote that he and Brigitte became close while filming Red Sonja together in 1985; the same year she married Sylvester.

The Terminator film star's admission comes more than a year after Brigitte originally blew the whistle on their "outrageous affair" in her own memoir You Only Get One Life, in which she claimed she didn't know he was living with Maria at the time.

Arnold Schwarzenegger: Affair Was Stupid

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Television, Break-ups, Divorce,

Arnold SchwarzeneggerArnold Schwarzenegger admits having an affair with his housekeeper was the "stupidest thing" he ever did in his marriage.
The Expendables 2 star accepts he caused great pain to his now estranged wife Maria Shriver and their four children with his illicit romance, which led to Mildred Beana giving birth to his son Joseph 14 years ago.

"I think it was the stupidest thing I've done in the whole relationship. It was terrible. I inflicted tremendous pain on Maria and unbelievable pain on the kids," he said in an interview with 60 Minutes, set to air this Sunday.

The former Governor of California is currently promoting his autobiography, Total Recall: My Unbelievably True Life Story and though he says Maria hasn't read the tell-all book, she wishes him the best. "I think that Maria is, you know, wishing me well in everything I do."

Mildred - who worked for Arnold's family for 20 years - had listed her ex-husband's name on Joseph's birth certificate and has previously said she only knew for certain who the boy's father was when he began to look increasingly like the actor. The affair was only revealed in May last year, days after Arnold and Maria announced they were separating after 25 years of marriage.

Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria ShriverArnold Schwarzenegger told estranged wife Maria Shriver he was going to start a relationship with a "20-year-old honey."

The Expendables 2 star is said to have told his wife of 25 years to leave their Californian mansion, which forced her to live in a hotel while Arnold remained in the property, and when she asked for a divorce he insisted that he would be the one who still has friends when they separate.

Chris Hemsworth ‘Disappointed’ by Schwarzenegger Comparisons

Chris HemsworthChris Hemsworth is "disappointed" by Arnold Schwarzenegger comparisons.

The Hollywood hunk wants to be seen as more than just an action film star and rejects comparisons with the Terminator actor.

"I got asked the other day, did you always want to be the next Schwarzenegger? I was really disappointed, like I thought, you know, that I'd chosen these scripts and loved them because they had real actors in them and real story and heart, and sometimes with films the action overshadows anything else. It was at a press conference and I looked around and thought, is someone going to defend me? Please!"

Comparisons with the actor-turned-politician stem from Chris's action film track record. The 28-year-old actor - who is currently starring in The Avengers alongside Scarlett Johansson and Samuel L. Jackson - believes his latest movie, Snow White and the Huntsman is "pretty dark" in parts: "It's certainly a big, summer... film, there are moments of fun and moments of action and also loads of tragedy and it's pretty dark."

Arnold Schwarzenegger Tried ‘Too Hard’ to Work with Stallone

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Action, Thrillers, Casting, Celeb News,

Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester StalloneArnold Schwarzenegger thinks he tried "too hard" to work alongside Sylvester Stallone in the past.

The Terminator star and the Rocky actor - who teamed up for action movie The Expendables in 2010 - are reuniting for forthcoming action-thriller The Tomb, and Arnold believes it is now an ideal time to collaborate with Sylvester.

"We worked really well together. The funny thing is we have tried, I think, our entire careers to always work together. We have talked about it for three decades and it never happened. I think we tried maybe too hard ... But now after the governorship, somehow this just fell into place," the 64 year-old former Governor of California said.

Sylvester admits the pair were "competitive" when they started their respective acting careers, but they have both now realized that teaming up with one another is beneficial: "We're just a couple of old war horses talking about the oddest subjects on the planet. I think in the beginning we were competitive - there's no question about it. A little alpha territorial. And then we realized it was good for our careers [to work together]."

Danny DeVito and Arnold Schwarzenegger in the original TwinsArnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito are set to team up for a sequel to Twins.

The actors will reprise their roles as unlikely brothers Julius and Vincent, who were conceived via test tube, in the follow up to the 1988 movie but the new film Triplets will feature the twist that they have another brother, according to Heat Vision Blog: Eddie Murphy is being lined up for the role of the surprise sibling.

Ivan Reitman, who directed the original will return to the project but only act as a producer with his Montecito Picture Co. partners Joe Medjuk, Tom Pollock and Ali Bell. As yet, there is no director attached. The focus is currently on finding a writer to pen the script based on the new idea.

Twins was Arnold's first departure from action flicks and remains his highest grossing comedy, also ranking as one of the most successful films of Danny and director Ivan's careers. The movie was based on the idea that Arnold and Danny's characters were twins born "in a secret lab somewhere in the Western hemisphere" where Schwarzenegger got all the good genes and DeVito got all the leftovers.
