Well, it’s kinda cool to see Stallone back as Rocky, right? Right? Anyone?

Anyway, Warner Bros and MGM are filming the Rocky spinoff Creed inPhiladelphia and here’s your first look at Sylvester Stallone and Michael B. Jordan in the movie.

Creed will follow the son of Apollo Creed with Stallone set to reprise his Rocky Balboa role, acting as the younger Creed’s reluctant trainer. The elder Creed, played by Carl Weathers, appeared in the first four “Rocky” films until a fight with Ivan Drago in Rocky IV led to his death in the ring.

Directed by Ryan Coogler, the film is also produced by Stallone along with Robert Chartoff, Kevin King Templeton, and Irwin Winkler. Nicolas Stern is executive producer. Creed was co-written by Aaron Covington and Coogler.

The movie arrives on November 25th, 2015

Marc is a self-confessed nerd. Ever since seeing Star Wars for the first time around 1979 he’s been an unapologetic fan of the Wars and still believes, with Clone Wars and now Underworld, we are yet to see the best Star Wars. He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
