Michael B. Jordan is a mainstay of the Creed franchise. But the last installment came in 2023.
Two years have passed, and fans wonder whether a fourth movie is possible. On this, the star shares an exciting update with fans, telling Variety the fourth installment “eventually, definitely will be made.”
He continues, “It’s a franchise that’s been really kind to me in a big way. I love MGM and Irwin Winkler and everything they’ve got going on.”
But the Black Panther says he does not want the next movie to focus solely on his character. “I think there’s a bit more story to be mined through that. Do I want to be in the ring boxing for the next 15 years? Not so much.”
Instead, he says they may look into other characters or introduce new ones to further the story.
“But I think there are clever ways and interesting characters we’ve established that we might want to see where that goes, along with some introductions to new ones I have in mind. I still might be able to get a couple of really good swings at the franchise a bit more.”
Not only this, but Michael shares that the Creed universe will also expand with a spinoff series. “We’re spinning off doing Adonis’s daughter, Amara’s story, the television show that’s picked up at Amazon. So you’ll be seeing different parts of the Creed-verse, I like to call it.”
“These little IPs are going to keep the universe alive without it being completely reliant on just me to push it through the finish line every time as a boxer. I’ll be adjacent,” he concludes.
