Sylvester Stallone Gets 'Rocky 6' Greenlit


Sylvester Stallone has been given the greenlit after many years to go forward with Rocky VI, according to Production Weekly.

He will direct the feature in addition to starring in it as Rocky Balboa once again. Stallone also wrote the screenplay. Rocky VI takes the aging boxer out of retirement, where his match against reigning heavyweight champ Mason "The Line" Dixon causes a media frenzy that puts him in the spotlight again.

Shooting will begin in Los Angeles in December.
