He's an acclaimed director in his own right, but is reportedly collaborating with another heavy hitter on a new project.
The 79-year-old actor and filmmaker is said to be working on an upcoming series with acclaimed auteur , 62, TMZ reported on Friday.
Although Stallone — who recently Chuck Norris — has earned a new wave of fans thanks to his work in Taylor Sheridan's series Tulsa King in recent years, Tarantino would be the most high-profile director he has worked with in the years since Ryan Coogler directed him to an Oscar nomination in 2015's Creed.
However, Stallone reportedly won't be acting in the new series, but instead will be behind the camera.
Sources said to have direct knowledge of the series said it is a period piece set in the 1930s, which would also be a stark departure from the low-budget video-on-demand action films Stallone has appeared in over the past decade.
The Daily Mail has reached out to representatives for Stallone and Tarantino for comment.
Sylvester Stallone, 79, is reportedly working with director Quentin Tarantino on a new series, sources with direct knowledge told TMZ on Friday; Stallone is pictured in September in NYC
Sources said to have direct knowledge of the series said it is a period piece set in the 1930s. They allegedly plan to shoot the series in black and white, and will supposedly be using cameras dating to the era; Tarantino is pictured in November in Hollywood
According to the sources, the filmmakers plan to go all out to achieve the period feel.
They allegedly plan to shoot the series in black and white, and will supposedly be using cameras dating to the era for a less crisp, vintage film texture.
The apparent devotion to classic film production isn't surprising for Tarantino, who has continued to shoot his features on film, rather than making the switch to digital.
In January, Stallone shared a video to Instagram in which he showed off his rippling biceps before a workout, but his followers couldn't believe that he was still so spry at his age.
