The film picks up a few years from where its predecessor left off. Now, Adonis is with Bianca (played with Tessa Thompson) and they have a child together. Adonis prepares for his face-off against Viktor Drago, the son of the boxer Ivan Drago (who killed Apollo during a boxing match). The trailer is set to Kendrick Lamar’s song ‘DNA’ and features montages from the film_._

Directed by Steven Capler Jr, Creed II has been written by Sylvester Stallone and Cheo Hodari Coker. Stallone also reprises his role as Rocky Balboa and Viktor Drago has been played by real-life boxer Florian Munteanu.
