Sylvester Stallone 'embarrassed' by Rambo toys and cartoon
Sylvester Stallone was deeply uncomfortable with the kid-friendly merchandise that sprung from his iconic action role, according to a report from JoBlo.
The actor reportedly found it embarrassing to see the violent character of John Rambo transformed into a line of children's toys and a Saturday morning cartoon series. He was said to have 'hated' the commercialization.
This clash between the film's gritty, adult themes and the family-friendly marketing push created a notable point of friction for the star. Stallone's personal feelings on the matter were described as one of clear discomfort with the direction his character was taken for younger audiences.
