Rambo and Rocky actor Sylvester Stallone is to take a starring role in a new medium, with the launch of a new men's magazine named after the action hero, sources said on Wednesday. This put Sylvester Stallone in the footsteps of celebrities Oprah Winfrey, Rosie O'Donnell and Donald Trump who have all had magazines launched under their names.

The 58-year-old cinema icon has lent his name and image to Sly, a monthly publication for men to be launched by American Media Inc. in January, sources close to the actor said...

The New York-based publication is a health and fitness monthly aimed at a target audience of older men in the 35- to 54-year-old range.
