Creed is a critically acclaimed 2015 American sports drama film and a spin-off of the Rocky series, focusing on the son of Apollo Creed as he seeks out Rocky Balboa to train him. It was directed by Ryan Coogler and stars Michael B. Jordan and Sylvester Stallone.
Adonis “Donnie” Johnson, the illegitimate son of the late world heavyweight champion Apollo Creed, never knew his famous father, who died in the ring before he was born. Despite being taken in by Apollo’s widow, Mary Anne Creed, and given a privileged life and corporate job, Adonis feels an undeniable pull toward boxing.
He quits his job and moves to Philadelphia, where he tracks down his father’s old rival-turned-friend, the retired Rocky Balboa, and asks him to be his trainer. Rocky, initially reluctant and still mourning the loss of his own loved ones, sees a reflection of Apollo’s spirit and determination in the young fighter and eventually agrees to mentor him.
As Adonis’ career takes off, he battles a formidable opponent in the ring: the light heavyweight champion “Pretty” Ricky Conlan. Simultaneously, he and Rocky must confront personal battles outside the ring, as Rocky is diagnosed with cancer. The film culminates in a powerful fight where Adonis, fighting under the Creed name, earns the respect of the boxing world and himself.
