Cool trailer. It looks like a Rocky 3 and 4 remake. I'll watch it because of Sly and Dolph Lundgren. Rocky will most likely die in this film...or the next, just like his trainer did in Rocky 3.
I don't find Michael B Jordan likable as an actor, so it's odd to see him play Apollo's son. He can play a good villain, like he did in BP, but as the "likable underdog", not so much, imo. Stallone made a career of playing the underdog in his two main franchises, and in most of his films, but he was more likable than Jordan, so he could get away with it, imo.
It's a shame Sly keeps stretching his characters after giving them a perfect ending in Rocky 6 and Rambo 4. But, I guess Rock needs to die and so will Rambo fighting a cartel next year.

Pretty good trailer but would have been epic if the music was Rocky theme changed up to be more modern or even use the Creed main theme from part 1.
They also should have shown Ivan at the end doing that evil smirk.
I enjoyed Creed so looking forward to it.
Agreed about Jordan, he is not likeable and always a better villain.

I never saw the first one. This looks ok I guess.
I hope Drago Jr. breaks his neck

Looks like Rocky: The Force Awakens. I cringed when Drago’s son said “I will break you” to Michael B. Jordan.
I’m just hoping for some good scenes between Rocky and Ivan.

Creed was essentially a remake of Rocky so it's no surprise that this seems to be borrowing elements from the other films as well.

True, but this one seems to be borrowing a lot. I was skeptical when they said Drago was coming back, but we’ll see how it turns out. I thought the first Creed was good.

They should have done something with Rocky 3 and not 4, but that's just me.

Rocky Balboa was a beautiful bookend to the Rocky character. Creed does not need to exist.
But it does and it was good so no harm in it. I just hope Stallone doesn't push his luck too far and end up making something really lackluster. I hope Creed 2 justifies itself.
