As of January 24, 2019, Sylvester Stallone will play the role of "Rocky Balboa" again in "Creed 2". But that's what it should have been.
With the outsider drama "Rocky", whose script he had written himself, Sylvester Stallone made the breakthrough in 1976. And the role of the silent boxer Rocky Balboa should be the one who never let go: in 1979, 1982 , 1985 and 1990, followed by a sequel, 2006 reconnected with the Hollywood star of "Rocky Balboa" even in the ring and in 2015, he handed over the torch to "Michael B. Jordan". In "Creed 2", which will be released on January 24, 2019 in German cinemas, Stallone will be seen again in his parade role – but probably for the last time.because then he wants to hang boxing gloves once and for all.
"I want to thank everyone for putting the Rocky family to heart for the last 40 years. It was the ultimate privilege to create and play this meaningful character. But unfortunately, everything ends up"Stallone writes about a video that he posted on Instagram.
And in the video, he recalls that we will see him under the name of Rocky for the last time: "Well, this is my last rodeo, because I was not expecting anything, I thought in 2006 that it was over with Rocky, and I was very happy with it. suddenly, this young man comes to me and everything has changed.He went to the next generation.New problems, new adventures.
With this "young man", the veteran Hollywood of course designates Michael B. Jordan, who now plays the lead role in the franchise "Rocky". And here too, Stallone says a few warm words: "I could not be happier to resign because my story is told […] Now, it's up to you to wear the coat! "
Michael B. Jordan, who embodies Adonis Creed, son of the legendary Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers), seems to have been acquitted of this task. Already "Creed – Rocky's Legacy" had been very well received in 2015 by critics and fans of the series. We also awarded four out of five possible stars in our review FILMSTARTS and attested that "The new lead actor Michael B. Jordan, the time proof franchise" make.
And indeed, "Creed 2", in which Adonis meets the son of Ivan Drago (Dolph Lundgren) of "Rocky VI", is in no way qualitatively inferior: "Creed 2 is not a euphoric boxing match to champion like his predecessor, but an unexpected, ambivalent and melancholy antithesis, to the uniqueness of Rocky IV" – The battle of the century & # 39;, it is said in our review with a strong four-star rating.
