Sylvester Stallone Details Richard Gere Feud: ‘I’d Knock His Teeth Out’

A couple of years before throwing punches in Rocky, Sylvester Stallone was ready to duke it out with Richard Gere on the set of the 1974 comedy film The Lords of Flatbush.

Stallone details the origin of his years-long feud with Gere in his new memoir, The Steps, saying that their discord began as they auditioned for the film alongside Robert De Niro, per Entertainment Weekly.
