It is abundantly evident from the Creed 3 trailer that Michael B. Jordan’s Adonis has a soft spot in his heart for long-lost buddies who served time in prison. When Jonathan Majors walks into the ring as Damian Anderson, it’s clear that these two people who used to be friends may not even know each other.
At least, that’s the general idea conveyed in the brand-new trailer for the March 2023 movie that’s based on the original Rocky Balboa movies. Jordan’s Adonis “Donnie” Creed, the son of Apollo Creed, a Rocky foe, seeks to aid a friend from his youth but ends up getting drawn into a brawl. One of the quotes on the two movie posters is “You can’t run… from your history.” Additionally, a significant line from the trailer features Damian saying: “You think you are mad? Try living in a cell for half of your life while observing someone else experience it.
Jealousy On March 3, 2023, an ancient story will once again draw audiences to the theatres to see Rocky and Creed. The first movie in the series, Creed, earned $173.5 million worldwide after earning 109 million domestically and 67 million elsewhere. Ryan Coogler helmed the fan favourite. Creed II performed better than that, earning a total of $214.2 million worldwide from domestic and foreign box office receipts of 115.7 and 98.5 million, respectively.
We haven’t seen Creed in theatres for seven years. Michael B. Jordan talked with members of the National Association of Black Journalists about the movie, which is also his first time directing.
Jordan stated, “I finally reached this point in my career where I wanted to tell a story rather than just stand in front of the camera or simply carry out someone else’s vision.” And living with this person for seven or eight years, a character I’ve portrayed twice before, As a result, I had a lot to say as a young guy and as a young Black man about my life experiences and how I could truly share them, share a piece of myself with the world-via these characters and through this story. I also had to tell a story about where I believe Adonis is at 35 years old. I simply thought that it was the proper moment. When we were working on Creed, Ryan Coogler and I were talking, and he simply said, “It’s never the appropriate time.” You simply have to dive right in and try it, you know?
