Since 2016, the Creed film series has kept Rocky's legacy alive while increasingly doing its own thing with Michael B. Jordan as Adonis Creed.
In the third film, the star is now directing himself for the first time.
It's about a sin from the past, played by Marvel star Jonathan Majors...
"Rocky" (Sylvester Stallone) was once the absolute underdog who earned and lost an opportunity... But he tried and tried and found success.
In 2016 Michael B. Jordan aka Adonis Creed, son of Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers), inherited the boxer series and Sly played a supporting role at least in the first two parts.
In the first even very touching as a sick boxing veteran.
At least Donnie had it a little easier as a boxer, one might say, but that was also due to the help of his mother (Phylicia Rashad), who protected him from external influences, but also had hidden various secrets from him.
Such appears in the third part played by Damian aka Dam (Jonathan Majors; "Loki", "Lovecraft Country", "Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania").
Directed by Michael B. Jordan himself, the script is being assisted by Keenan Coogler ("Space Jam: A New Legacy") and Zach Baylin ("King Richard"), who completed an original concept by Ryan Coogler ("Black Panther") .
