While Sylvester Stallone's Rocky won't be part of the movie, Michael B. Jordan returns as Adonis Creed in Creed III, and the actor will also be stepping behind the camera to direct. It's an exciting development in his career and one that could lead to even bigger projects for him down the line (we'd love to see him follow Black Panther director Ryan Coogler into the MCU).
Joining the actor will be Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania star Jonathan Majors as Damian "Dame" Anderson, a character who is perhaps the most dominant opponent Adonis has ever faced.
Now, we have an extended Super Bowl TV spot for the upcoming threequel that offers an exciting glimpse at the fight to come. The dynamic between these two former friends promises to be fascinating, and we can clearly expect this to be a personal clash with stakes higher than any previous matchups in this spin-off franchise.
Majors is on a roll both in and outside of the MCU, and we're anticipating another scene-stealing performance when he dons Dame's gloves and steps into the ring.
In Creed III, after dominating the boxing world, Adonis Creed has been thriving in both his career and family life. When a childhood friend and former boxing prodigy, Damian, 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 set to be released in theaters on March 3, 2023.
