After Fruitvale Station, Creed and Black Panther, Michael B. Jordan and Ryan Coogler reunite for… Dead movie! According to Deadline, two artists create a work that is still kept secret. We just know that the story will be set around the 1930s and that vampires will be involved.
According to the journalist Boris Keith of The Hollywood Reporter, this collaboration between Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan will have a huge impact on Japanese anime. This will not be surprising, especially if we know the actor’s passion for One Piece, Dragon Ball or Naruto. He apparently requested these inspirations for the creation of Creed III.
Bloody Michael B. Jordan?
The project was a bidding war between Universal and Warner Bros. for the rights. In the end, W firm won the bet. The studio seems to have a lot of confidence in the film’s potential and has reportedly given it a hefty budget, estimated at $90 million.
Filming is expected to begin next April in New Orleans. At the moment, only Michael B. Jordan has been announced in the casting. The actor will be very busy for the next few years; The latter is involved in the future I Am Legend 2 with Will Smith and his name is attached to the adaptation of The Thomas Crown Affair, Rainbow Six and of course Creed IV.
Boxing and dollars
We remind you that Michael B. Jordan transitioned to directing with Episode 3 of the saga, which was released last year. The feature film was successful and grossed 276 million GEL for a budget of 75 million. Accordingly, the artist will return behind the camera with the upcoming Creed IV.
In total, the trilogy earned $663 million internationally. If we combine the saga of Rocky + Creed, this figure increases to 2 billion! Michael B. Jordan, who plays the title character in Creed, has moved on to direct Ryan Coogler and Steven Caple Jr. Speaking to Deadline, saga producer Irwin Winkler confirmed that the artist was going to return behind the camera for the fourth installment.
“We plan to make Creed IV as soon as possible. We have a very good story and a good plot. We’re a little late because of the strikes, but we’ll start pre-production in about a year. Michael B. Jordan did it. Great job, he was comfortable on camera.”Irwin Winkler emphasized.
