“Two Guys in Their 20’s With a Dream”: Frank Stallone Shares “First” Unseen Photo of Him and Brother Sylvester Stallone in Los Angeles

The story of the Stallone brothers is no less than a Hollywood drama. The brothers defied many odds to make it big in Hollywood. From being broke, the duo went on to change their lives. For instance, Frank Stallone established himself as a great music composer. On the other hand, his older brother, Sylvester Stallone, known famously for playing his legendary character, ‘Rocky Balboa,’ is one of the finest actors in the world. The brothers are the epitome of what sheer hard work and dedication can do for someone and are a source of inspiration for their fans.

Recently, Frank Stallone remembered his struggling days with his brother when they moved to Los Angeles to take their shot at making it big in the industry.

A memorable picture of the Stallone brothers

The younger Stallone took to Instagram to share a picture of him and Sylvester during their initial days in Los Angeles. In the picture, the Stallone brothers are seen smiling, with dreams of making it big in their eyes. The picture will send the fans into a frenzy of nostalgia.

The 72-year-old further penned down an emotional caption explaining why this picture is close to his heart. The photo was taken during the time when Frank was in LA for the first time. He also adds how both were poor and unknown at the time. The actor and musician also talked about how Los Angeles was different back then than it is now. This photo was captured when both brothers were rehearsing for the ‘Rocky’ movie.

He added, “Two guys in their 20’s with a dream.”  The photo was clicked in 1975, and Frank left for New York to make it big in the music industry in 1979.

This photo is so special that neither of them knew back then they will become successful in the industry. But, the duo enjoyed the process and wanted to give it all. The smile on their faces vouches for that.

The fans lauded the duo for their contribution to Hollywood and the sport of boxing. Sylvester Stallone earned a place in the boxing hall of fame for his contribution to boxing through his ‘Rocky’ franchise.
