Back When Sylvester Stallone Revealed the Truth Behind His and Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Iconic Pumpkin Carving Photo

Hollywood gave us its own example of two protagonists turning friends like in a
movie. Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger evolved from being
competitors to friends as they aged. While the two always enjoyed a massive
fanbase, seeing them together has only inspired the masses. Both remain active
in the industry today, but support each other through it.

In fact, the two have grabbed attention on social media through active posts.
Schwarzenegger once made a buzz by uploading a photo of him with Stallone from
his own office. Now, you would expect two fitness geeks to meet over a workout.
But instead, they carved Halloween pumpkins last year. Here is a throwback video
of Stallone explaining how they ended up there.


SYLVESTER STALLONE ONCE EXPLAINED HOW HE AND ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER ENDED UP
CARVING PUMPKINS

Stallone and Schwarzenegger are certainly two of the biggest living icons that
we have today. Despite the newer generation and competition, they manage to stay
updated on social media and keep trending. Their own Halloween picture
[https://www.netflixjunkie.com/netflix-news-heads-for-halloween-arnold-schwarzenegger-and-sylvester-stallone-pump-up-the-festival-spirit-in-a-new-post/]
came as a pleasant surprise for fans. During an interview with Jimmy Fallon, the
actor explained how it all started with a simple meeting.



He went to meet his rival-turned-friend to promote his reality show, The Family
Stallone. Schwarzenegger welcomed him and informed him about getting his donkey
and pony to meet him.

The 76-year-old went up, and to his surprise, there was actually a donkey named
Lulu and a pony named Whiskey roaming around in diapers. To top it,
Schwarzenegger asked if they could carve pumpkins, which led them to carve the
Halloween pumpkins together.

Now the two have resolved their issues, but things were not this smooth during
their peak years.


THE ACTORS HAD TO LEAVE BEHIND DECADES OF PUBLIC COMPARISON AND COMPETITION

Schwarzenegger and Stallone were the ones who evolved the way a hero looked, not
just in Hollywood but across the globe. But being at its peak in the 80s-90s,
there was a constant comparison of who is better. Keeping that behind, they
worked together on Escape Plan and The Expendables franchise. Today, they stay
united and continue to motivate people not just about fitness but also kindness.
Perhaps their pumpkin carving could turn into a tradition.
