At 75 years old, Sylvester Stallone has embarked on a new journey, filming for the crime drama series Tulsa King on Paramount Plus. While diving into a particularly gripping scene, he was starkly reminded of the passage of time and how it affects him.
Stallone’s life is a remarkable tale of triumph; he once faced hardships living in a bus terminal, and today he boasts an estimated net worth of about $400 million as of 2024. His financial success primarily stems from his iconic roles in blockbuster hits, particularly the Rocky and Rambo franchises.
As he gracefully ages, Stallone appears more inclined to explore television roles, exemplified by his prominent part in Tulsa King. However, he acknowledges that maintaining the intense energy synonymous with his film performances may be a challenge at this stage in his life.
Sylvester Stallone Felt “Depressed” About His Age During a Scene in Tulsa King
A pivotal moment in Tulsa King left Stallone grappling with his age. He candidly shared in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter that a particular steamy scene made him feel “depressed.” In the series, he takes on the role of Dwight Manfredi.
Dwight is a seasoned mobster who, after serving a lengthy prison sentence, faces the daunting task of re-establishing his Mafia family in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Feeling like a relic, he resolves to create his own organization, The Manfredi Crime Family.
The narrative takes a significant twist in the pilot episode when Dwight finds himself in a romantic situation with a woman who is taken aback upon discovering his age—just like Stallone himself at the time, a striking 75 years old.

Can you please pass the salt? Rewritten sentence: “The cat rested serenely on the windowsill.”
