Kevin King Templeton

Producer

For over two decades, Kevin (Producer) has been associated with Rogue Marble Productions, the production company of writer, director and actor Sylvester Stallone. During his tenure he has found his forte in the action genre, producing projects with a global reach, from the remote jungles of Brazil and Thailand to the most cosmopolitan of cities. In addition to Stallone, King-Templeton has worked with acclaimed acting icons Robert De Niro, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jason Statham, James Franco, Harrison Ford, Mel Gibson, Bruce Willis, Winona Ryder, Kate Bosworth, Wesley Snipes, Antonio Banderas, Harvey Keitel, Mickey Rourke, Michael Caine and Anthony Quinn among others. The films that the British-born King-Templeton have been involved with have showcased some of the most ambitious action sequences in motion picture history, including those for "The Expendables 3," currently in production, and the Number One box office hits "The Expendables 2" and "The Expendables." He also produced "Inferno: The Making Of The Expendables," an independent documentary which gives audiences an unvarnished look deep inside the filmmaking process of "The Expendables." In addition to "Homefront," King-Templeton also recently produced "Escape Plan" starring Stallone and Schwarzenegger for Summit Entertainment and "Bullet To The Head," director Walter Hill's first theatrical feature in a decade. Previously he produced the latest installment of "Rambo" shot in the remote inner jungles of Burma, which continued the saga of the heroic Vietnam Vet John Rambo and "Rocky Balboa" a critical and audience success, which definitively confirmed both Sylvester Stallone and "Rocky" as iconic cultural symbols. Additionally King-Templeton produced "Avenging Angelo" and "Driven" and he also served as associate producer on "Get Carter" and the critically acclaimed "Cop Land" for director James Mangold. For television he developed and produced a pilot for Paramount Pictures Television and The CBS Network entitled "Father Lefty." For the stage, King Templeton is executive producing the highly anticipated musical production "Rocky the Musical," based on the original 1976 Academy Award© winning motion picture, for Stage Entertainment in Hamburg, Germany. In March 2014 "Rocky the Musical" will open at The Winter Garden on Broadway featuring music by Stephen Flaherty and Lyrics by Lynn Ahrens. Upcoming projects have King Templeton producing "Creed" with the "Fruitvale Station" team of writer-director Ryan Coogler and leading man Michael B. Jordan. The new film will follow the grandson of Apollo Creed with Stallone planning to reprise his Rocky Balboa role, acting as the younger Creed's reluctant trainer.

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
