Michael B. Jordan returns for the fight of his life in ‘Creed II’ trailer

Michael B. Jordan, already having a hot year with Black Panther (which earned him an MTV Movie Award) is back this fall in the continuing story of the Oscar-nominated box-office hit Creed in Creed II.

Official synopsis:

[box type=”shadow” align=”” class=”” width=””]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.[/box]
