The Rambo star will be presented with the top prize at the convention’s awards ceremony on 25April at Sin City’s Caesars Palace. “Sylvester Stallone has proven himself time and time again to be a prolific actor, writer and director over the years. Throughout his incredible career spanning nearly 40 years, Sylvester has established his ability to continually captivate his audiences,” the Daily Express quoted CinemaCon general manager Mitch Neuhauser as saying.
