Creed III marks star Michael B. Jordan’s feature directorial debut. He directed from a script by Keenan Coogler and Zach Baylin.
After dominating the boxing world, Adonis Creed (Michael B. Jordan) has been thriving in both his career and family life.
When a childhood friend and former boxing prodigy, Damian (Jonathan Majors), resurfaces after serving a long sentence in prison, he is eager to prove that he deserves his shot in the ring.
The face-off between former friends is more than just a fight. To settle the score, Adonis must put his future on the line to battle Damian – a fighter who has nothing to lose.
Creed III is the third installment in the successful franchise. Ryan Coogler directed Creed (Black Panther films), and Steven Caple Jr. helmed Creed II (upcoming Transformers: Rise of the Beasts).
In addition to Michael B. Jordan and Jonathan Majors, the third film stars Tessa Thompson, Wood Harris, Florian Munteanu, and Phylicia Rashad.
The screenplay was based on a story by Ryan Coogler, Keenan Coogler, and Zach Baylin.
The producers include Irwin Winkler, Charles Winkler, William Chartoff, David Winkler, Ryan Coogler, Michael B. Jordan, Elizabeth Raposo, Jonathan Glickman, and Sylvester Stallone.
The Creed films are part of MGM‘s Rocky franchise, which includes nine movies (including Creed III) and has grossed $1.7 billion worldwide.
