A spinoff of Creed titled Drago is reportedly in development at MGM studios from screenwriter Robert Lawton, according to Deadline.
The Creed franchise is a spinoff of the famous Sylvester Stallone boxing Philadelphia Rocky franchise. Creed, which starts Michael B. Jordan as Adonis Creed, the son of Apollo Creed, also takes place in Philadelphia.
Deadline reports Drago will center around the same character and actor portrayed in 1985’s Rocky IV and 2018’s Creed II, as well as Drago's son Victor—who was in Creed II.
Creed, which is directed by Ryan Coogler, is reportedly set to release Creed III in 2023.
The original Rocky movie was released in 1976. Rocky II, III, IV, V, and Rocky Balboa followed in 1979, 1982, 1985, 1990, and 2006. Creed was released in 2015 and Creed II followed in 2018, with Creed III expected in 2023.
