The series will follow Sylvester Stallone, his wife Jennifer Flavin Stallone and their three daughters for eight episodes.

Stallone has made a name for himself by playing the boxing hero Rocky and the tormented war veteran Rambo, but neither of these are his greatest roles, according to himself.

"Sylvester Stallone is ready to give the cameras access to what he considers to be the greatest role he's had in his lifetime: father," reads the press release about the new reality series.

"The family Stallone" will be shown on the streaming service Paramount+.
