Sylvester Stallone has broken his social media silence after he was accused of creating a 'toxic' working environment on the set of his Paramount+ show, Tulsa King.

The Rocky actor, 77, was hit by allegations last week he and director Craig Zisk made cruel remarks about background actors on the show, allegedly branding them 'ugly and fat.' 

Zisk has denied the claims while Stallone's representatives have not responded to a comment request from DailyMail.com.
