A fun fact about Creed III is that Michael B. Jordan not only reprised his role as Adonis Creed but also made his directorial debut with this film. He became the third actor from the Rocky franchise to direct a movie within the series, following in the footsteps of Sylvester Stallone, who directed four of the original Rocky films, and Carl Weathers, who directed a documentary about the making of the series. This transition from acting to directing showcases Michael B. Jordan’s versatility and passion for the story and characters in the Creed universe.
