Sylvester Stallone and Michael B. Jordan Throw Punches in First 'Creed' Photo


There may not have been a clamor for yet another Rocky movie, but what about a Rocky movie that isn't really about him? Sylvester Stallone is back as the Italian Stallion in Creed, but the real star is Michael B. Jordan as the son of Rocky's greatest rival and best friend, Apollo Creed. Stallone took to Instagram today and delivered the knock out first image from Creed!

Reuniting Jordan with his his Fruitvale Station director, Ryan Coogler, Creed centers on Adonis Creed, who never knew his famous daddy before he was killed by Ivan Drago in Rocky IV. Adonis has the natural talent to be a champion fighter, and seeks Rocky out to be his trainer. The veteran fighter agrees, but he's got another battle going on that may be his toughest yet. 

Those who were looking out for it late last year may have seen a potential spoiler about that battle Rocky is fighting, but we won't spoil that here right now. You can look it up yourself.

Also starring Tessa Thompson and Phylicia Rashad, Creed steps into the ring on November 25th.
