Sylvester Stallone has been a long term supporter of Everton thanks to his friendship with club director Robert Earl. Stallone made his first appearance at Goodison park in a 1-1 draw against Reading in 2007. Stallone had approached the club last year to film his latest instalment “Creed” in the hugely successful “Rocky” franchise.

Lifelong Everton Tony Bellew was also featured in the film highlighting the club’s crest and merchandise. The filmmakers had recorded booing and cheering sounds of the fans in the stands to be used for crowd scenes in the movie during Everton’s game against West Bromwich Albion in 2014.

Stallone made an appearance on the stadium’s big screen during half-time requesting the fans to be a part of the film. Goodison park can also be spotted in various scenes in the background. 68-year-old Stallone also admitted that he once wished to buy the club and regrets not to have done it.
