Sylvester Stallone has offered British boxer Tyson Fury a part in the new ‘Expendables’ movie following his heavyweight title triumph.
The Rocky legend was amazed by the British fighter’s heavyweight title boxing victory over Deontay Wilder earlier this month.
He described the bout as “the fight of the century” and as “great theatre.”
In a video message congratulating Fury for his victory, Sly, sho starred as Rocky, said:
“It couldn’t happen to a better guy.
“I think you have a fantastic career in movies. So, the next Expendables? Done deal!” The Rambo actor continued.
Sly has been working on the 4th instalment of the Expendables and will star alongside Jason Statham, Dolph Lundgren, Megan Fox and Andy Garcia in the fast-paced action flick.
The Hollywood icon has also confirmed that he will exit the series after this film and confessed that it was “bittersweet” to be “passing the baton” to Jason Statham and his “capable hands”.
“EXPENDABLES finale for me. Today is my last day of filming … Heading home. So they go,” he wrote on Instagram.
Fury,33, has yet to respond to the lucrative offer, but it won’t be a surprise if he accepts considering his sense of theater.
