Final Round Creed Movie News.

From Total film.

Creed Sylvester Stallone has one last outing (again) as rocky balboa, this time training up some new blood.


Sylvester Stallone "This isn't rocky 7, it's an incredible idea an insane idea".






Despite promising that the sixth installment in saga, rocky balboa,was going to be the final bow for his most beloved character,sly has (again)been persuaded to step back into the ring one last time.
well he wont actually be fighting in creed. The insane idea came from fruitvale station writer / direct
or Ryan Coogler, who shifted the focus to the next generation of fighters namely Adonis creed the son of rocky's one-time rival Apollo,ho met an untimely end during a bout with Ivan Drago in Rocky 4, Coogler found inspiration for the father son dynamic within his own family, 


Ryan Coogler - "My dad and i were going through something pretty intense in our relationship around the time i was getting ready to make Fruitvale & that's how i came up with the idea for creed"





The hook here is that Adonis, played by Fantastic four star Michael b Jordan, calls on his old man former sparring partner to train him up,in short, rocky becomes mickey.A self-professed rocky fan, Jordan is dedicated to making sure Creed hits the mark.

Michael b Jordan -  "i'm gonna make sure we do a good job with this, sly's not gonna let anything happen to his baby."





Early footage shown at Cinema-con suggests that Coogler has nailed the tone with a spot on blend of grit & nostalgia. Here hoping rocky goes the distance in his final bout.
