Michael B. Jordan talks about Creed 4

In an interview with Variety, Michael B. Jordan has teased Creed 4. He said that it's still got a bit of a story.

"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. 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. 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."

He further said that the universe will keep expanding and confirmed that they are working on a spin-off series for Amazon. It will be based on Amara, who was Adonis Creed's daughter.

"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."

Jordan's association with the Creed franchise in 2015. The film was directed and co-written by Ryan Coogler, a longtime collaborator. It focuses on Rocky Balboa training Adonis Creed, Apollo Creed's son. The film was a critical and commercial success. It was followed by two more installments, Creed 2 and Creed III.

Creed 4 will also star Tessa Thompson and Mila Davis-Kent.
