“Rocky Balboa” Final One-Sheet Poster

Yo Adrian! It’s the final “Rocky Balboa” one-sheet poster! That’s right, kids, due to popoular (???) demand, Sylvester Stallone returns to the role that originally made him a sensation — Rocky Balboa, the lisping Italian boxer with a heart of something and a fist full of something or rather. The plot, involving cyber boxing and whatnot, sounds like it could be really stupid or really The Sci Fi Channel Original Movie-ish. And the difference is, erm, I don’t know.

The company line:

The greatest underdog story of our time is back for one final round of the Academy Award-winning Rocky franchise, former heavyweight champion Rocky Balboa steps out of retirement and back into the ring, pitting himself against a new rival in a dramatically different era.

After a virtual boxing match declares Rocky Balboa the victor over current champion Mason “The Line” Dixon, the legendary fighter’s passion and spirit are reignited. But when his desire to fight in small, regional competitions is trumped by promoters calling for a rematch of the cyber-fight, Balboa must weigh the mental and physical risks of a high profile exhibition match against his need to be in the ring.

ROCKY BALBOA stars Sylvester Stallone, Burt Young, Milo Ventimiglia, Tony Burton, James Francis Kelly III, Antonio Tarver and Geraldine Hughes.

Rocky comes back for one last beating December 22, 2006. Check out the official site here.
