Arnold Schwarzenegger (76) and Sylvester Stallone (77) have in The Graham Norton Show talked about the quarrel that occupied them for years. “We pushed the competition to the limit.”
The two are now good friends. “But even our DNA hated each other,” Stallone reflects.
The feud arose at the Golden Globes ceremony in 1977. Stallone was nominated for six categories, but lost five times. Schwarzenegger reportedly laughed at that, which led to the argument.
In the years that followed, the men admitted nothing to each other. “In our films we try to outdo each other with who killed the most people and who had the biggest guns,” says Schwarzenegger.
The actors were also regularly unkind to each other. Schwarzenegger indicated last year The Hollywood Reporter admitted that in the 1990s he pretended to be interested in starring in the “bad” movie Stop! Or My Mom Will Shootso that Stallone would want the role.
“It’s 100 percent true. And he really bought into it. He really went for it,” Schwarzenegger said. “At that time we were big rivals and we did all kinds of crazy things to outsmart each other.”
The argument between the two has been resolved since the actors invested together in the Planet Hollywood restaurant chain. “We cherish our friendship,” Schwarzenegger said. The two have also appeared in several films together, including three parts of The Expendables.
