Fogelman made the announcement on Thursday at during a panel at the Television Critics Association Summer Press Tour.

If you remember from the first season, aspiring actor Kevin (Justin Hartley) gets asked by Ron Howard to be in his next film. Stallone enters the story as one of the stars of that film. He’ll also serve as a bit of a “father figure” for Kevin. In the Season 1 finale, Kevin was last seen headed to California to shoot the movie, after telling his ex-wife, Sophie (Alexandra Breckenridge), that he belonged with her in New York.

Stallone is the first big-name guest star of the NBC family drama's second season. Last season, celebrities playing themselves in cameos included Katie Couric, Seth Meyers, Alan Thicke, and Howard.
