Sylvester Stallone remains a major figure in Hollywood with multiple new projects, recent reconciliations, and a forthcoming memoir generating headlines in 2025[3].

On the career front, Stallone has completed production on “The Epiphany”, a crime thriller in which he plays a hard-nosed Philadelphia detective confronting his past with the Catholic Church while tracking a serial killer targeting church members. The film is slated for release in Argentina on November 20, 2025, with a US release to follow[1].

Stallone is also closely connected to the upcoming pilot for the crime thriller series “Can’t Go Home”, having directed its first episode. The show, set in Boston’s criminal underworld, stars Tom Mariano, Jennifer Garner, Maggie Q, Esai Morales, and Paul Guilfoyle. The pilot’s release is scheduled for December 25, 2025; it is still unknown if Stallone will direct additional episodes[1].

Elsewhere, Amazon MGM Studios has officially moved forward with a film tentatively titled “I Play Rocky”. Peter Farrelly directs, with the story focusing on Stallone’s fight to star in the original “Rocky.”[2] However, Stallone’s involvement in this biopic is not confirmed, despite his ongoing vocal interest in the franchise[2]. Producers are also teasing further developments with both the “Rocky” and “Creed” franchises[2].

A “teaser” trailer for “The Expendables 5” surfaced online in July 2025, showing Stallone reprising his role as Barney Ross. The trailer, however, has been identified as a fan-made creation, and official details about the project’s release or production remain unconfirmed[4].

Similarly, rumors continue to swirl regarding “Rambo 6: New Blood”. Speculation suggests Stallone may return in some form, possibly handing the franchise’s future to a new, potentially female, lead. As of now, nothing has been formally announced by Stallone or a studio[6].

On the personal side, Stallone and his wife Jennifer Flavin have reconciled following previous divorce filings and rumors of marital strife. The couple appears to have overcome their differences, ending speculation about a split after 25 years of marriage[3].

Another significant development is Stallone’s forthcoming memoir titled “Steps”. Set for publication in 2025, “Steps” promises a deeply personal narrative shaped by teachable moments from Stallone’s life and career. This hybrid memoir/self-help book is described as similar in tone to Matthew McConaughey’s bestseller “Greenlights” and refers back to the iconic “Rocky” steps in Philadelphia[5].

Stallone remains active on social media, most recently thanking the crew as season 3 of one of his latest projects wraps up, and hinting at more future work to come[7].
