A new trailer for Creed II has arrived and it’s going to drive Donald Trump insane.
Just kidding, Donald Trump probably won’t watch any movie starring a black man. But if he did, he would not know who to root for in the upcoming bout between Young Creed and Young Drago.
Here’s the synopsis from Warner Bros.
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.
Why can’t they just say, “Creed is about to fight the son of the man who killed his father”? That’s the real synopsis. If you need anything more to hook you, you either didn’t care for the original Rocky franchise or you too are worried about having to pick between the United States and Russia.
The answer is the United States.
Michael B. Jordan looks fucking jacked in this film. I don’t know if the Hollywood Athletic Commission implements drug testing, but if they do, Jordan might not make it to the fight. I’ve seen what USADA has done to the UFC, there’s no way Jordan would pass the smell test. That’s literally how they test fighters in combat sports. They smell them and decide if they are on steroids. 100 percent of athletes on steroids smell bad.
Creed II hits theaters on Nov. 21. So celebrate Thanksgiving by watching America beat Russia once again.
