Warner Bros., MGM and New Line Cinema have released the first trailer for the Rocky spin-off Creed, which returns Sylvester Stallone to his iconic role in a film directed by the Friutvale Station team of director Ryan Coogler and star Michael B. Jordan.
The former World Heavyweight Champion Rocky Balboa serves as a trainer and mentor to Adonis Creed, the son of his late friend and former rival Apollo Creed.
It certainly has that Rocky feel, while making it clear that Sly plays a supporting role. But who are we kidding here? We can’t wait!
Creed opens on November 25th, 2015
