Fight fans, Michael B. Jordan is taking the ‘Creed’ legacy to the episodic screen. 

Full story below…

Prime Video has officially greenlit ‘Delphi‘, a new drama series set inside the Delphi Boxing Academy, the same gym that’s been at the heart of the ‘Rocky’ and ‘Creed’ films.

Executive produced by Jordan himself, the series will follow the next generation of hungry young fighters under the tough love leadership of Tony “Little Duke” Evers, son of Apollo Creed’s legendary trainer. 

While plot details are still under wraps, Jordan’s vision to expand the ‘Creed’ universe beyond the ring is coming to life, something he first teased in 2023. 

Jordan shared his excitement about the announcement:

 “What I love about this story is that it stays true to what the Rocky and Creed franchise is all about: hard work, determination, fighting for something bigger than yourself. It’s about family, the ones we’re born into and the ones that we created. We’re building something special here, and I’m excited to introduce you to new fighters that will walk into the Delphi. As always, in Creed we say, one step, one round, one punch at a time.”

It hasn’t been confirmed if familiar faces like Tessa Thompson, Phylicia Rashad, or  Jordan will appear, but chances are high that a few of them will pop up as the series unfolds.

With the ‘Creed’ trilogy raking in over $660 million globally and Jordan’s latest project ‘Sinners’ earning praise, ‘Delphi’ is already shaping up to be a knockout.
