Have You Seen The New Trailer For CREED II With Ivan Drago?

LEGACY. DESTINY. FAMILY.

Metro Goldwyn Mayer Pictures and Warner Bros. Pictures have released a new trailer and poster for CREED II. We finally get a look at Ivan Drago!

The film, directed by Steven Caple Jr., the cast includes Michael B. Jordan, Sylvester Stallone, Tessa Thompson, Phylicia Rashad, Wood Harris, Andre Ward, Florian “The Big Nasty” Munteanu, Dolph Lundgren, Russell Hornsby.

Written by Sylvester Stallone, CREED II opens in theaters Wednesday, November 21st.

As I said in my “Best of Rocky Films” post, I still by my ranking which finds ROCKY IV in the number one spot.

“The cold-war was still a thing then and Rocky has to fight the giant blonde Russian, Ivan Drago (Dolph Lundgren) to avenge the death of best friend and mentor Apollo Creed. What makes this come in at #1 is that this movie is just awesome! From the cheesy musical montages set to 80’s pop anthems (the training montage is one of the best ones you will ever see), to Rocky’s inspirational message of world peace, this movie gives you all the feels.”

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.
