SYNOPSIS: Life has become a balancing act for Adonis Creed. Between personal obligations and training for his next big fight, he is up against the challenge of his life. Facing an opponent with ties to his family’s past only intensifies his impending battle in the ring. Rocky Balboa is there by his side through it all and, together, Rocky and Adonis will confront their shared legacy, question what’s worth fighting for, and discover that nothing’s more important than family. Creed II is about going back to basics to rediscover what made you a champion in the first place, and remembering that, no matter where you go, you can’t escape your history.

SYLVESTER STALLONE is currently working on the script for the sequel to 2015’s box office hit ‘Creed’ that earned him a Golden Globes win for best supporting actor. Sly has been dropping major hints that a certain Russian badass may be returning to the ‘Rocky’ universe in the form of DOLPH LUNDGREN’s ‘Ivan Drago’ from ‘Rocky IV’!

The original ‘Creed’ followed an aging ‘Rocky Balboa’ as he trains MICHAEL B. JORDAN’s ‘Adonis Creed’. As we all know, Adonis’ father ‘Apollo Creed’ was killed by ‘Drago’ in ‘Rocky IV’. What will happen when Adonis meets his father’s killer face to face? Perhaps Drago have a son and Adonis fights him in the ring in the ultimate grudge match?
CREED 2 will most likely start production once director RYAN COOGLER finishes up his work on Marvel’s ‘Black Panther’.
Stay tuned for more details.
