Creed sequel set for 2017
That's mighty impressive for a project which could have been seen as a mere money maker, a way to shoehorn a beloved franchise into a new form for a new generation. But director Ryan Coogler had the right stuff to bring a vital new character into the mix in the form of Adonis Creed, played upcoming superstar Michael B Jordan.
The film has been a modest success at the box office, taking in almost $120 million on a $35 million budget. That's not a blockbuster by any standards but with a few territories left to open it's a decent result and with the talent involved it's enough to guarantee a sequel. Now we've got news on that second film.
