Take a look inside Sylvester Stallone's former Los Angeles mansion from the Netflix documentary 'Sly'
Netflix's "Sly" looks at the life and career of Sylvester Stallone.
The documentary takes place while the actor is packing up his Los Angeles mansion.
Adele bought the 21,000-square-foot home, which has eight bedrooms and a life-size Rocky statue.
"Rocky" star Sylvester Stallone is the focus of Netflix's new documentary, "Sly," which sees the 77-year-old star discuss his journey from a budding writer and actor to becoming one of the most famous Hollywood icons of the last few decades.
In the documentary, Stallone recalls how projects like "Rocky" got off the ground, and also touches on the death of his son, Sage Stallone.
The documentary reflects on Stallone's life as he packs up his mansion in Los Angeles before moving to Florida.
"Sly" gives audiences a brief glimpse of the mansion, which was bought by Grammy award-winning singer Adele in 2022 for $58 million. Take a look inside below.
Sylvester Stallone initially put the 21,000-square-foot home on the market in January 2021 for $110 million before taking the listing down and lowering the asking price to $85 million.

The compound also had a professional theater, as well as a wine cellar, a library that doubled as an office, an eight-car garage, an art studio, and a putting green, Hilton told Insider.

According to Forbes, Stallone built the house after buying the parcel of land in the 1990s. In December 2020, he bought a waterfront compound in Palm Beach, Florida, for $35 million.

In 2022, British singer Adele bought the mansion for $58 million, and kept the Rocky statue.
In February 2022, the Los Angeles Times reported that Adele had bought Stallone's LA mansion for $58 million, just over half of the original price tag.
Speaking to the Wall Street Journal in June, Stallone said that Adele only agreed to buy the property if she could also keep Stallone's life-size statue of Rocky Balboa.
When asked if he wanted to keep the sculpture, Stallone said: "I did. But she said, 'That's a no deal. That's gonna blow the whole deal.' She wanted the statue. I like what she's doing, she's making it gorgeous."
Adele previously told Vogue in 2021 that she's a huge fan of the "Rocky" movies, so it's no surprise that she wanted to keep the statue for herself.
