Because He's A Character Who's Looking For

I Never Came With A Conscious Plan To Replace Anyone Else. Stallone Does Feel That Way. He Is A Real Tough Guy In Real Life, And He Gets To Act That Out. If You Meet Him And Work With Him, He Is What He Is. He Is A Guy That Works Out Every Day.

I Think Mortality Makes You Live A Fuller Existence. When I Was A Kid I Was Scared Of Death, And Maybe That's What Made Me Desperate To Get The Most Out Of Life.

I Prefer To Channel My Problems And Inner Demons Through A Character. Another Persona. That Protects Me And My Family. I Can Get My Frustrations Out That Way.

My Sensei Was A British Karate Champion Named Brian Fitkin. He Was My Mentor And Because I Had A Hard Relationship With My Dad, He Became A Father Figure To Me.

Because He's A Character Who's Looking For His Own Identity, [he-man Is] An Interesting Role For An Actor.
