Creed II: All you need to know about Michael B Jordan-Sylvester Stallone's latest round in Rocky series

Steven Caple Jr replaces Ryan Coogler in the director’s chair this time as Creed fights Victor Drago, son of Ivan Drago, the Russian boxer who killed Creed’s father Apollo. Set in the Rocky universe, the Creed films are a continuation of the Rocky story, following Stallone’s retired champ as he faces up to middle age and trains a new protege in Jordan’s Adonis Creed. Creed tells the story of Adonis Creed, the illegitimate son of Rocky’s late opponent-turned-friend Apollo Creed. Dolph Lundgren reprises the role of Ivan Drago in Creed II, which is as much a sequel to Creed as it is to Rocky IV, where Drago kills Apollo Creed in the ring, only to lose to Rocky Balboa.
