First "Creed II" Trailer Reveals Knockout Sequel

This December, there’s more to lose than a title. Check out the first official trailer of Warner Bros. Pictures’ “Creed II” and watch the film in Philippine cinemas December 06.



In “Creed II,” 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.
