REAL FRIENDS are more precious than gold.”Stallone shared a second post where he called Winkler a “blood sucker” and “parasite producer”.In a post addressing Stallone’s remarks, Lundgren claimed he was “under the impression” that Stallone was involved in the project.“Just to set the record straight regarding a possible Drago spin-off,” Lundgren wrote.

Sylvester Stallone is once again taking aim at the producers behind the franchise, denouncing the upcoming spin-off film, and calling out Dolph Lundgren in the process.The famed actor took to Instagram over the weekend to drag Lundgren and producer Irwin Winkler by name for allegedly cutting him out of the universe. Stallone shared a gruesome photo to the social media platform that featured him as Rocky Balboa and Winkler edited to have vampire fangs with both of them covered in blood. In the photo's caption, Stallone pointedly wrote, «After IRWIN WINKLER And FAMILY SUCK ROCKY DRY! Presumed to be the most hated, untalented, decrepited, Producer in Hollywood and his cowardly children have found their next meal… Drago ?» A post shared by Sly Stallone (@officialslystallone)The 76-year-old actor continued, «Throughout history so many artists in every industry ,recording, painting writing, you name it have been destroyed by these blood suckers Who have destroyed so many families, lining their pockets with other people work… #parasite producers #exploited artists victims.» In another post over the weekend, Stallone shared an article that teased  going to production and called out Lundgren for allegedly not reaching out about the film. He wrote, «By the way, I once had nothing but respect for Dolph but he NEVER told me about what was going on behind my back with the character I created for him!!! REAL FRIENDS Are more precious than gold.» A post shared by Sly Stallone (@officialslystallone)Addressing the allegations Sunday, Lundgren shared a photo of him with Stallone and claimed he did not know the  actor was not involved as well.

While not all is well in the world of the “Rocky” franchise—Sylvester Stallone is currently warring with producer Irwin Winkler, incensed that Winkler won’t give him back the rights to the character he created— the spin-off “Creed” franchise is seemingly pretty healthy. The sequel was successful enough for the studio to move forward with a third pic in the sports drama series.
