'Creed': Sylvester Stallone And Michael B. Jordan To Star In 'Rocky' Spin-Off

[Pelicans78]

Rocky V was such an obvious Mike Tyson storyline. Pretty much all of the Rocky movies after the original are abortions though. They're guilty pleasures of mine, but never could I defend them as good movies.

Rocky IV ended the Cold War you asshole.

Hard to believe Rocky Balboa came out 9 years ago.

The intention is for Jordan to play the grandson of Apollo Creed (played in the early movies by Carl Weathers). Raised in an upper-crust home thanks to the ring riches earned by his grandfather, the young man doesn’t have to box and his family doesn’t want him to. Yet, he has the natural instinct and gifts and potential that made his grandfather the heavyweight champion until Rocky Balboa took his crown in 1979′s Rocky II. Creed’s grandson needs a mentor and turns to Balboa, who is out of boxing completely and not eager to return.

Balboa was Creed’s greatest opponent and later his best friend until that fateful moment when Balboa heeded Creed’s wishes and didn’t stop the fight against the Soviet fighter Drago (played by Dolph Lungdren in 1985′s Rocky IV) before the giant delivered what proved to be a fatal beating.

Natural gifts = Ghetto genetics

Basically the hood version of Rocky, tbh.

Seen a few reviews calling it the best since Rocky II.
