MGM and Warner Bros. Pictures have released the full-length trailer for the boxing drama Creed [CREED]. Sylvester Stallone [SSTAL] reprises his iconic role as Rocky Balboa in the spin-off starring Michael B. Jordan [MBJOR] as the son of Apollo Creed from writer-director Ryan Coogler (Fruitvale Station).
Adonis Johnson (Jordan) never knew his famous father, world heavyweight champion Apollo Creed, who died before he was born. Still, there’s no denying that boxing is in his blood, so Adonis heads to Philadelphia, the site of Apollo Creed’s legendary match with a tough upstart named Rocky Balboa. Once in the City of Brotherly Love, Adonis tracks Rocky (Stallone) down and asks him to be his trainer. Despite his insistence that he is out of the fight game for good, Rocky sees in Adonis the strength and determination he had known in Apollo—the fierce rival who became his closest friend. Agreeing to take him on, Rocky trains the young fighter, even as the former champ is battling an opponent more deadly than any he faced in the ring.
Creed lands in theaters on November 25th.
