The ROCKY franchise didn’t go away after six movies, it just evolved into the CREED franchise, which has been quite good. Michael B. Jordan is commanding playing Apollo Creed’s son Adonis Creed, who must prove himself in the ring time and time again, which of course affords us multiple films to enjoy. I’ve been very impressed with this new franchise so far, and CREED III looks every bit as good as the first two. This outing is also directed by Michael B. Jordan from a screenplay by Keenan Coogler and Zach Baylin, and the cast includes (once again) Tessa Thompson, Florian Munteanu, and the new nemesis is played by Jonathan Majors. In this story, Adonis reunites with a man from his past, Damian, played by Majors, who appears to have taken the fall for a crime both men were involved with as youths, only Damian spent the majority of his life in prison while Adonis became a superstar in the ring. So naturally, they now have to fight. Check out the first trailer below and tell us your thoughts in the comments.
