Sylvester Stallone is set to star in and direct a sixth film in the 'Rocky' franchise.
Production Weekly reports that the film is scheduled to begin shooting in December in Los Angeles.
The story will follow Rocky Balboa (Stallone) as he comes out of retirement with a viewing to taking part in a few low-key, local fights.
But when he is offered the chance to fight the reigning heavyweight champion, Rocky's comeback becomes a media circus.
