Sylvester Stallone is all set to star in his own reality TV show with his
family.
According to Reuters, the actor, his wife Jennifer and
their three daughters - Sophia, Sistine and Scarlet - are following in the
footsteps of other celebrity families such as the Osbournes and Kardashians,
in having cameras follow them as they go about their daily lives.
"The
Family Stallone", which premieres on Paramount+ this week, features scenes of
Stallone on set filming television series "Tulsa King" as well as at home with
his family. There are celebratory moments as well as more intimate family
scenes.
"So what you see here is what you get. This is what we've been
wanting to do for a long time, which is share our life a little bit because
it's entertaining," Stallone told Reuters in a joint interview with Jennifer
and their daughters.
"It also has a message that no matter what you
have, we may have all the trappings of wealth and we're very fortunate, we
still have the same issues and the same wants and the same needs and the same
requirements for love and so it's there for everyone to see."
The family said the idea for the show stemmed from Sistine and
Sophia's podcast "Unwaxed".
"We've featured our whole family on it
and everyone was so shocked that they were just so funny and relatable and
gave great business advice," Sistine said. "I think people just kept wanting
to see more and more."
Asked about comparisons to hit show "The
Kardashians", Stallone said: "I think the Kardashians were brilliant in what
they did and very original, we're taking a different tack. But the main thing
is you don't try to copy someone. That's who they are, we are who we are and
that's what I think gives the audience a variety."
