In a star-studded memorial for the legendary Hollywood lawyer Jake Bloom, Arnold Schwarzenegger took to the stage to share a surprising tale of how Bloom worked his magic to mend a longstanding rivalry between Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone. ๐โจ
Arnie recalled how, in the early days of their careers, he and Stallone were fiercely competitive – battling over muscles and paychecks. When Bloom took Stallone under his wing, Schwarzenegger was incensed. Yet, Bloom’s vision for Planet Hollywood ultimately brought the two action heroes together as business partners. ๐๐
