Despite his shock, Mark – who starred in the film opposite Tom Hanks – was thrilled to win, though he confessed he would have hated to be the judge of so many “wonderful” performances across Hollywood in 2015. And then you go home and you analyze it.
Arnold Schwarzenegger even was a part of Sylvester’s The Expendable series, and both shared leading roles in the prison action flick, Escape Plan.
Frank Stallone came to his brother’s defense after the loss with an angry tweet. He was awarded Best Supporting Actor by the BAFTAs (the British Oscars), the Australian Film Institute, the National Society of Film Critics and various critics organizations in Boston, London, New York, Phoenix, Toronto and Vancouver.
Late Monday evening, he offered this tweet in way of apology: “I will always defend what right but I was wrong to put down Mark Rylance and I apologize”.
The elder Stallone responded, “I’m very happy and please understand my brother is so em motional because he is just very protective and only wants the best for me”. Life is good!’ (sic) he wrote.
“To me, you’re the best, no matter what they say, ‘ he said in a short video posted on his Twitter account”. You were the victor.
