Producer Irwin Winkler Confirms Creed Sequel in Development
The producer who won Best Picture for Rocky at the Oscars so many years ago has confirmed that discussions on the Creed sequel are coming this month. The seventh film in the Rocky Balboa saga looks set to continue the boxing franchise's future.
"Next couple of weeks, we'll start. But basically it's about Creed [rather than Rocky]. We think that there is really a story to examine the life of Adonis Creed, and we're going ahead with it."
Creed director Ryan Coogler and star Michael B. Jordan were not included in the conversation, nor did he say whether they are contractually committed to returning for a follow-up.
