But Stallone, who has written and directed numerous films over the year s, hopes he will be able to continue his career by mirroring Clint Eastwo od’s decision to move behind-the-scenes full-time.
He says, "I’m on borrowed time. At this age I hear the ticking clock an d it’s as loud as the gong on Big Ben (London’s famous clock tower). The ultimate ambition is to follow in Clint Eastwood’s footsteps and move on to directing films without me having to be in them.
