Creed is a return to the world of the Philadelphia champ but it’s not really about him. It’s about family lost, and found; it’s about pride in oneself, and the value (or not) of legacy.
Most of all, it’s a fresh riff on a classic genre of film – the boxing movie.
Your legacy is more than a name. Adonis Johnson has boxing in his blood – and not just because his father was Apollo Creed. He has had to fight every day of his life and now he has chosen to make boxing his career.
Who does he want to train him? Rocky Balboa – but Rocky has sworn he’s never getting back in the game. Check out the first trailer for Creed after the jump.
Creed steps into the ring on November 25th.
