The third installment of the Creed franchise is coming soon with Creed 3. This film is the ninth addition to the Rocky series, and it stars Michael B. Jordan as Adonis Creed, a professional boxer who gets trained by the legendary Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone). This is the release date, cast, rumors, and everything we know about the upcoming installment in the Creed series.
When is the Creed 3 release date?
Creed III is set to release in theaters on March 3, 2023. The film was pushed back from a November 2022 release date. In true Rocky fashion, this film will have the same person direct and star in the film. Jordan is set to make his feature directorial debut in this film while also playing the lead role.
Who is in the Creed 3 cast?
Michael B. Jordan will direct and star in the film. Tessa Thompson will reprise her role as Bianca Taylor, a musician who serves as Adonis’s love interest. Other returning cast members include Phylicia Rashad as Mary Anne Creed, Wood Harris as Tony “Little Duke” Evers, and Florian Munteanu as Viktor Drago.
This is notably the first film in the Rocky series not to feature Sylvester Stallone as Rocky Balboa. He will not appear in this film as his story was resolved in Creed II. However, the movie will feature Jonathan Majors as Anderson Dame, who will be the adversary that Adonis faces off against. The cast is rounded out by Selenis Leyva, Thaddeus J. Mixson, Spence Moore II, and Mila Davis-Kent.
Have there been any Creed 3 leaks?
There have been no leaks surrounding the film, and no official synopsis has been released yet. However, in an interview with Metro, Stallone, who remains a producer on the film, stated, “It takes it in a different direction. I wish them well and keep punching!”
With another few months before the next Creed film, there is a lot to look forward to with this critically acclaimed sports drama series that pulls no punches.
