Sage Moonblood Stallone, the 36-year-old son of Sylvester Stallone who starred alongside his father in "Rocky V," was found dead in his Hollywood apartment on Friday.  The New York Post confirmed his passing with his attorney George Braunstein.  Sources tell The Post that he likely died of an overdose of pills, and that a representative of the LAPD stated, "There is no suspicion of foul play or criminal activity."

Sage Stallone was Sylvester Stallone's eldest son from his first marriage to Sasha Czack (they divorced in 1985).  Sage is survived by his brother Seargeoh, and his three half-sisters Sophia, Sistine, and Scarlet.

Sage made his film debut playing Robert Balboa, Rocky's son, in 1990's "Rocky V" when he was 14 years old.  The film was both a critical and financial disappointment, with Sylvester Stallone telling The Sun in 2010 that the reason he made the sequel was "I'm greedy — what can I tell you... It was a mistake because the audience didn't want to see the downside of the character. They wanted him to remain on top..."

Sad to hear, Sly Stallone must be in bits. RIP

God, losing a child (no matter their age) has got to be horrible, especially to something like an overdose.  Sad and tragic.  From what I understand he and his dad had been estranged (supposedly he'd suffered some kind of abuse as a child) for a long time but were recently talking again.

Whatever the cause, it's a horrible thing to outlive your child.  My heart goes out to Stallone and Czack.

Same.

As it has been said . . .

Lose a parent, and you have lost your past.
Lose a spouse, and you have lost your present.
But, lose a child, and you have lost your future.
