It's been almost two and a half years since Creed II was released. It's expected that fans of the Michael B. Jordan-led Rocky spinoffs are curious about what's going on with Creed 3. The last information we got about the threequel came in October 2020 when it was announced that Micheal B. Jordan would reprise his role as Adonis and direct the movie. Currently, Jordan has officially taken the job, and Creed 3 has a release date.

According to Michael B. Jordan, "Directing has always been an aspiration, but the timing had to be right. Creed 3 is that moment — a time in my life where I've grown more sure of who I am, holding agency in my own story, maturing personally, growing professionally, and learning from the greats like Ryan Coogler, most recently Denzel Washington, and other top tier directors I respect. All of which sets the table for this moment. This franchise and, in particular, the themes of Creed 3 are deeply personal to me. I look forward to sharing the next chapter of Adonis Creed's story with the tremendous responsibility of being its director and namesake."
