The actor debuts as a director with the third installment of ‘Creed’ in the ‘Rocky’ saga, and he will have to face Jonathan Majors in the ring.
The deadliest boxer in cinema returns in ‘Creed III’, the third installment of the saga that was born on the legacy of ‘Rocky’ and Sylvester Stallone, and that now carries Michael B. Jordan on his (broad) shoulders. We review everything we know about the film: release date, cast, synopsis, trailer… A return that is not unexpected but surprising. Will it be up to it?
Rocky and his universe have been killed as many times as they have been reborn. With the change of era, and after the downturn ‘Rocky V’ (John G. Avildsen, 1990), no one could have predicted ‘Rocky Balboa’ (Sylvester Stallone, 2006), who once again honored one of the best boxing movies. The same thing happened almost a decade later when, with high school Sylvester Stallone steals scenes, ‘Creed: The Legend of Rocky’ (Ryan Coogler, 2015) swept the box office. With Michael B. Jordan and Tessa Thompson become stars, ‘Creed II: The Legend of Rocky’ (Steven Caple Jr., 2018) managed to even improve the box office results but the third one has been hard to come by.
Leaving behind the best movies of 2022 and the best action movies of 2022, we enter a new year in which Creed will return to the ring. Ready for the hits?
