Boomer Icons We Love

Sylvester Stallone

A self-made star who wrote his own ticket with Rocky, then parlayed his success into the Rambo franchise, Stallone is much more than his muscles. His recent role in Tulsa King shows his self-deprecating side, but we may like him best in 1997’s Cop Land, in which he played way against type as a small-town sheriff struggling for respect.

He’s notable for loyalty to his friends — including Jackie Chan and Rocky IV co-star Dolph Lundgren — and returned this summer with The Expendables 4. We’re still holding out hope he’ll somehow return to the Creed franchise, even if just for a proper goodbye to Rocky Balboa.
