Over the years, Stallone has made a shortlist of five Hollywood stars he openly disliked, with reasons ranging from on-set betrayals to nearly ending up in a fistfight.

Let’s dive into the drama behind Stallone’s most explosive rivalries.

Arnold Schwarzenegger – From bitter rivals to bros

They competed over muscles, box office dominance, and media attention.

Their rivalry included public taunts, trying to “kill more people on screen,” and even insults exchanged at the 1977 Golden Globes—including Stallone hurling a vase of flowers at Arnie after Rocky beat out Stay Hungry.

Richard Gere – Grease fight and a car quarrel

The Lords of Flatbush.

An on-set clash erupted when Gere accidentally dripped greasy food onto Stallone’s pants during lunch.

Stallone responded by elbowing him and pushing him out of the car— Gère was promptly fired.

Dolph Lundgren – Muscle envy turned admiration

Rocky IV.

He was jealous of Lundgren’s striking physique and presence (“hair that can only be cut with a lawnmower… cheekbones like a Harley”), but that animosity eventually gave way to mutual respect.

They even reunited later in The Expendables franchise.

Eddie Murphy – Affair allegations destroyed a friendship

Beverly Hills Cop II co-star—who was Stallone’s wife, Brigitte Nielsen at the time.

Stallone accused Murphy of having an affair, leading to a heated phone confrontation and the end of their friendship.

Murphy has maintained his innocence ever since

Lori Petty – Creative clashes on Demolition Man

Demolition Man in 1992 proved contentious when Lori Petty, cast as Lieutenant Huxley, clashed with Stallone.

According to production notes, their disagreements with the director and Stallone led to her dismissal, with director Joel Silver citing personal and creative differences.
