In case you still haven't seen the first Creed, it features the son (Adonis Creed) of Rocky Balboa's rival-turned-friend, Apollo, and his struggle to come to terms with living in his legendary father's shadow while pursuing a professional boxing career. Adonis' pops died in the ring in Rocky IV -- the one in which the "Italian Stallion" fought the roided-up Russian. And guess what? That very same Russian, who delivered the fatal punches to Apollo, will appear in Creed 2. Yep, Dolph Lundgren is making a return to the Rocky series.
The down-side is that Creed director Ryan Coogler was so busy overseeing Black Panther that he didn't return to write the script (or direct). Instead, Sylvester Stallone wrote the screenplay. But if the trailer's any indication, the movie won't disappoint.
