Creed III is an upcoming American sports drama film directed by Michael B. Jordan (in his feature directorial debut) with a screenplay by Keenan Coogler and Zach Baylin from a story they co-wrote with Ryan Coogler. The sequel to Creed II (2018) and the ninth installment in the Rocky franchise, the film stars Jordan, Tessa Thompson, Jonathan Majors, Wood Harris, Florian Munteanu, and Phylicia Rashad. This is the first film in the franchise without Sylvester Stallone as Rocky Balboa, though he still serves as a producer for his Balboa Productions banner.

third opus of the saga also marks the actor's directorial debut. The film brings together in the cast Tessa Thompson (The Creed Saga, Chiaroscuro), Jonathan Majors (Da 5 Bloods, Lovecraft Country), Wood Harris (The Creed Saga, Blade Runner 2049), Florian Munteanu (Creed ii, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings), the debutante Mila Kent, and Phylicia Rashad (The Creed Saga, Soul). Michael Jordan directs from a script by Keenan Coogler (Space Jam: A New Legacy) & Zach Baylin (King Richard), based on a story by Ryan Coogler (Black Panther: Wakanda forever) and Keenan Coogler & Zach Baylin. The film is produced by Irwin Winkler, Charles Winkler, William Chartoff, David Winkler, Ryan Coogler, Michael B. Jordan, Elizabeth Raposo, Jonathan Glickman and Sylvester Stallone. Sev Ohanian, Zinzi Coogler, Nicolas Stern and Adam Rosenberg are executive producing. Jordan is joined by cinematographer Kramer Morgenthau (Creed II, Thor: The Dark World), cinematographer Jahmin Assa (90S, Angelyne), cinematographer Tyler Nelson (The Batman, Rememory), cinematographer Lizz Wolf (Creed II, Pacific Rim: Uprising) and composer Joseph Shirley (Jackass Forever, The Book of Boba Fett).

In December 2018, in response to the suggestion that Deontay Wilder could play the son of Clubber Lang in a potential sequel to Creed II (2018), both Sylvester Stallone and Michael B. Jordan expressed interest in such a character being featured in the plot of the next installment. In September 2019, Jordan confirmed that Creed III was officially in active development. In February 2020, Zach Baylin was announced as screenwriter, with Jordan confirmed to reprise his role as Adonis Creed. In October 2020, it was reported that, in addition to reprising his role of Adonis Creed, Jordan would also direct Creed III, serving as his directorial debut. Producers had expressed interest in having Jordan serve as director, with Irwin Winkler stating that he had personally offered the position to the actor. In April 2021, Stallone announced he would not appear as Rocky Balboa in the film. By June 2021, Jonathan Majors entered talks to portray Adonis' new adversary.In November 2021, it was officially confirmed that Majors would appear in the film. In April 2022, it was announced that Wood Harris and Florian Munteanu would reprise their roles from previous Creed films, while Selenis Leyva, Thaddeus J. Mixson, Spence Moore II and Mila Davis-Kent joined the cast. In September 2022, Mexican boxer Canelo Álvarez was cast in an undisclosed role.

Principal photography began in late January 2022, with Jordan being spotted on the film's set in Atlanta, Georgia. Kramer Morgenthau returned as the cinematographer for the film, after doing so for Creed II.[citation needed] The film was shot on IMAX-certified Sony CineAlta Venice cameras and the Panavision anamorphic format, making this the first film in the series to do so.[citation needed] Filming later ended on April 6, 2022.[citation needed]

Creed III is scheduled to be released in the United States on March 3, 2023, by United Artists Releasing.
