Конечно, Сталлоне был шокирован дерзостью молодого актера, но именно таким в его представлении и должен был быть Аполло Крид. Роль досталась Уэзерсу. Для подготовки к роли в «Рокки» Уэзерс посещал тренажерный зал шесть раз в неделю, ежедневно занимался боксом, оттачивая технику. Такая изнурительная подготовка дала свои плоды: Карл шедеврально отыграл роль Крида, органично смотрелся в кадре, а «Рокки» стал классикой мирового кино. Стоит отметить, что сам Мухаммед Али в шутку вызывал Уэзерса на бой. Лента получила три «Оскара», «Золотой Глобус» и стала лучшим фильмом 1976 года, а в 2006-м вошла в американский Национальный реестр фильмов, как картина, имеющая особенное культурное, историческое или эстетическое значение. При бюджете в 1 млн долларов «Рокки» собрал феноменальные 225 млн в широком прокате, а Сталлоне и Уэзерс стали суперзвездами.

Уэзерс сыграл во втором, третьем и четвертом фильмах спортивной франшизы, и роли в культовых лентах принесли ему всемирную славу. Однако Карл запомнился зрителю не только по ролям Крида. В 1987 году актер снялся в еще одном значимом фильме — «Хищник», где его партнером стал Арнольд Шварценеггер. В одном из эпизодов герои Арнольда и Карла померялись силами при рукопожатии.
His talents eventually landed him at San Diego State, as a transfer student, where he played defensive end for Hall of Fame coach Don Coryell.
After that season, he went unselected in the 1970 NFL draft but his connection to an old friend helped him land on his feet. Hall had become a linebackers coach for the Raiders. Weathers called him to let him know he was interested in Oakland, and he was given a shot at making the roster. So he changed positions to linebacker and played a large portion of his snaps on special teams. Weathers donned the number 49 for the 1970 season.
Upshaw, the five-time All Pro guard, hooked the rookie by extending his arm and knocked Weathers off his feet. Stabler and Weathers were both rookies under Madden in 1970. Today, Carl would be a safety. That would have been the perfect position for him. He had everything it took.
He was smart, he could run like a deer and he was chiseled. He was a magnificent athlete. He would probably fit in really, really well as a running back. Madden sat down with Weathers and gave him the news that they planned to cut him, but Weathers says what he heard next hurt more than any left hook or form tackle.
He graduated with a B. He told The Hollywood Reporter that his start in the iconic franchise was not auspicious. He was asked to read with the writer, Stallone, then unknown. Weathers is survived by two sons.
My life was forever changed for the better the day I met Carl Weathers. Rest in power and keeping punching. Today is an incredibly sad day for me. I never could have accomplished what we did with Rocky without him. But more importantly, his heart, his soul...

How could I be an actor of any worth, really? And without sensitivity, how can you do that? So on one hand, it felt like an indictment, like I committed a crime. And on the other hand, I guess it reminded me of something that was actually necessary in me to succeed and what I envisioned doing with my life, you know, as a performer, as an artist. So, God bless John Madden for seeing something in me and naming it what it actually is: a certain amount of sensitivity. I was blessed enough to have made it. Premiering in 1976, Rocky went on to be one of the most celebrated movies ever, with Weathers as its iconic antagonist: Apollo Creed.
He had turned in the Silver and Black for red, white and blue—shorts with a top hat to match. The charismatic Creed became a household name, which is now the namesake of a spin-off franchise three movies deep starring Michael B. It was just the first big role for Weathers, who to this day does what he loves; his full-time acting career has lasted for nearly a half century. Baby Yoda is one of many famous characters with whom Weathers has shared the screen. The show premiered in 2019 with Karga the leader of a bounty hunter group on a planet that is still haunted by remnants of the now-fallen Evil Empire. Weathers always wanted to prove Madden wrong.
But in the end, he proved him more right than he could have ever imagined. Latest NFL News.
