Sly French collector Mike posted a very rare photo
(which according to me may have been taken by someone other than the official still photographer...)

I believe this was one of the pics that got Dolph to meet Stallone for the first time.

Image

After he had been turned down at the first "cattle call" audition, Dolph got the still photographer of A VIEW TO A KILL to shoot him in boxing gear and later on pass them on to Sly through some Grace Jones connections, Warren Robertson (Dolph's acting mentor then), and John Herzfeld (long time Sly friend and director of INFERNO, the making of THE EXPENDABLES)...

Actor Dolph Lundgren Screens “Rocky IV” at NYFA LA
https://www.nyfa.edu/film-school-blog/a ... v-nyfa-la/

Devane asked a question from a student at the NYFA Australia campus. The student, Andy, asked, “What was your greatest challenge working as an actor?”

Lundgren responded, “My greatest challenge is you want to make it fresh for yourself all the time. You have to find something fresh in the material for you to be excited about the role. I always have a secret about the character. I don’t tell anyone, not even the director. It takes something to make you excited to come to set every day.”

One of the instructors in attendance, Aviv Rubenstein, asked, “Upon viewing this movie (“Rocky IV”) as an adult, it seems like Drago is more of a reluctant soldier. You don’t say, ‘I will break you.’ You say, ‘I must break you.’ How much of that is in the script, how much of that is in your performance, and how much of that is in the directing?”

“You’re completely correct. Some of it was in Stallone’s script. Drago is the Frankenstein myth created by the system. Dr. Frankenstein is the bad guy and the monster is just the creation. That’s why I think this character resonates,” Lundgren said.

Lundgren also credited his dialect coach who not only helped him perfect his Russian accent but also was a Meisner trained actor. He helped Lundgren play the second level since Drago was so stoic they would have him behave embarrassed at certain lines, and these behaviors were not in the script.

While not an official release, it's now being screened regularly in some theatres in the U.S. mostly or speciality cinemas like Prince Charles in London.

I remember it getting a wide re-release in France in the summer 1989 (along with A VIEW TO A KILL)...
