The Rocky series, one of Sylvester Stallone’s most successful film series to date, broke the record after record by storm in the late 70s and 80s. Creed, the spiritual continuation of the series, focused on Apollo Creed’s son Adonis rather than Rocky Balboa.
Especially after the success of Creed III, which was released last week, in a short time, Amazon, the parent company of the producer company MGM, announced that they wanted to expand the Creed universe even more and that they were making plans at the idea stage.
It might even have an anime.
According to Deadline’s report, Creed III, which grossed $58 million in its first week, managed to rekindle the love of “boxing movies” in people, just like in the 80s. On top of this success, Amazon announced that they are seriously considering expanding the Creed universe even more. In addition to the Drago anime, which was announced in the past months and will tell the story of Rocky’s arch-enemy Ivan Drago and his son Viktor, it was stated that Amazon is considering spin-off series and animes about important characters in the Creed and Rocky universe.
Although it is still at the idea stage, it is said that Amazon, which is stated to want to offer productions that can attract the attention of adults and young adults who love boxing movies such as Rocky and Creed, is said to be very warm to this idea. According to some claims, company officials have already started to present their ideas by meeting with director candidates.
Allegedly, the first series that Amazon wants to present in the new “Creed universe” will focus on the entry of Adonis Creed’s daughter Amara into the world of boxing. In the last movie, Amara proved to her father and the audience that she could be a successful boxer.
