Sylvester Stallone’s Rocky IV Director’s Cut Gets a New Poster and a Release Date

Sylvester Stallone reveals the release date for the Rocky IV director’s cut along with a new poster that highlights the film’s climactic fight.

Sylvester Stallone has announced the release date for the director’s cut of Rocky IV with a new poster.

Stallone shared the news on Instagram, saying, “Wonderful pre-poster done by John Rivoli. ROCKY VS DRAGO is coming your way November 11th. Keep punching.” The poster is done in the style of a boxing advertisement, promoting the climactic final fight between the all-American Rocky Balboa and Ivan Drago, darling of the Soviet Union.

Stallone confirmed he had completed the director’s cut this past April, saying, “[A movie’s] never complete. I’ve said this before, you can go back and see a movie that you’ve done 50 years ago [and be like] ‘God, I would love to re-edit that.’ And every director feels that same way. It’s not about making a movie, it’s about remaking [it]. Unfortunately, you run out of time, you run out of money — they basically throw you out of the [editing] room. So, therefore, you don’t get a chance. But, on [Rocky IV], we finally got a chance, so I’m feeling great about this.” He also unveiled another Rocky IV poster for the film this past May.
