SYLVESTER Stallone's son Sage has died of a suspected drug overdose in his Los Angeles Apartment.

Publicist for Sylvester Stallone Michelle Bega said in a statement that the elder Stallone is devastated and grief-stricken by his son's death.

The New York Post and TMZ reported the 36-year-old was found in his apartment. Paramedics were called, but he was pronounced dead at the scene.

The Post spoke with Sage Moonblood Stallone's attorney: "He was in good spirits, and working on all kinds of projects,” George Braunstein told the paper. “He was planning on getting married. I am just devastated. He was an extremely wonderful, loving guy. This is a tragedy.”

"There is no suspicion of foul play or criminal activity," the LAPD reported. His body was discovered after police went to check the home when someone had been unable to get in touch with Sage and asked police to investigate.

Sage Moonblood Stallone was the oldest of Sylvester Stallone's children and appeared with his father in two films. He made his acting debut in 1990's Rocky V, and also appeared with his father in 1996's Daylight.

Sage Stallone, eldest son of Sylvester Stallone, found dead at 36

Sage Moonblood Stallone, the 36-year-old son of Sylvester Stallone who starred alongside his father in "Rocky V," was found dead in his Hollywood apartment on Friday. The New York Post confirmed his passing with his attorney George Braunstein. Sources tell The Post that he likely died of an overdose of pills, and that a representative of the LAPD stated, "There is no suspicion of foul play or criminal activity."

Sage Stallone was Sylvester Stallone's eldest son from his first marriage to Sasha Czack (they divorced in 1985). Sage is survived by his brother Seargeoh, and his three half-sisters Sophia, Sistine, and Scarlet.

Sage made his film debut playing Robert Balboa, Rocky's son, in 1990's "Rocky V" when he was 14 years old. The film was both a critical and financial disappointment, with Sylvester Stallone telling The Sun in 2010 that the reason he made the sequel was "I'm greedy — what can I tell you... It was a mistake because the audience didn't want to see the downside of the character. They wanted him to remain on top."

Sylvester Stallone's son Sage was thought to be dead for days before a housekeeper found his body

SYLVESTER Stallone's son Sage is thought to have been dead for several days before his body was discovered by a housekeeper.
New reports suggest the 36-year-old's body laid in his Los Angeles home for three to four days.

Coroner's officials are investigating the death and it is believed he overdosed on prescription pills found at the scene.

According to TMZ, the filmmaker "lived like Howard Hughes" in a room "littered with junk".

The website reports a source told them Sage had become a recluse and had had no contact with his family before he was found dead.

His body was discovered by a housekeeper, who was told to never go into his room portrayed as "disgusting" and foul-smelling, The Daily Mail reports.

Although paramedics arrived at the scene at 3.05pm, they left again within half an hour and the body was taken to the coroner's office rather than the hospital.

A source told RadarOnline: "I suspect he had been dead for quite a while when he was discovered. Usually medics will be at the scene for around forty-five minutes but they were out of there within half an hour."

Prescription drugs were reportedly found beside the body although if the death was caused by drugs, friends believe it was an accidental overdose.

Sage was Sylvester's son from his first marriage to Sasha Czack.

Czack is said to asked the housekeeper to go and see him after she failed to make contact.

Sylvester's representative Michelle Bega, released a statement saying: "Sylvester Stallone is devastated and grief-stricken over the sudden loss of his son Sage Stallone. His compassion and thoughts are with Sage's mother, Sasha. Sage was a very talented and wonderful young man. His loss will be felt forever."

Sage Stallone's death was a surprise to all who knew him, according to his lawyer and longtime friend George Braunstein, E! Online reports.

"He was very creative, energetic and very full of life," Braunstein told E! News. "We were just joking about how he was going to get married and have a fun marriage. There was nothing dark or depressing, no problems, certainly no financial problems."

His mother Sasha Czack is devastated by his death.

The investigation into Sage's death is still ongoing.
