First 'Creed II' Images Will Quench Your Michael B. Jordan Thirst
Adonis Creed is ready to get back in the ring.
Two new images from "Creed II" have been released and both are a showcase for very buff star Michael B. Jordan. It's clear Adonis is in peak form as he trains with Rocky (Sylvester Stallone) for a major fight.
Of course, this isn't just any fight — his opponent is the son of Ivan Drago (Dolph Lundgren), the Russian villain who dealt deadly blows to Apollo Creed in "Rocky IV."
Here's the sequel's official 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.
"Creed II" opens in theaters November 21.
