Naaa, getting it "tight" doesn't mean changing it all over... Dolph is signed now and he's been training especially for it, he and Sly are too close and they know what Drago Sr's return means in terms of iconic weight / power...

Thompson, incidentally, is writing more music for Creed II. She wrote and performed three songs (“Grip,” “Breather,” “Shed You”) for the original, after co-developing her character, Bianca, with writer-director Coogler. He wanted Bianca to be a career-focused millennial, with ambitions and dreams to match those of her boyfriend, Adonis Creed (played by Jordan).

Expect Bianca to be developed further in the Creed sequel, which should start shooting in Philadelphia soon (the start date, she said, was pushed back to accommodate Coogler and Jordan’s post-production work on Black Panther).

Sylvester Stallone is cowriting the script with Cheo Hodari Coker, showrunner of television’s Luke Cage, another Marvel character, and thus part of Marvel’s full-employment plan for American film talent.

Thompson expects to be in Philadelphia soon, working on her music and her character for the sequel. She’s thrilled.

“I’m not just saying this because you’re a Philadelphia journalist. I love that city,” said the L.A. native. “When we were making Creed, I came in a few months early and just hung out with musicians, to kind of get into that space, and I just fell in love with it, and I truly did not want to leave. And I can’t wait to come back.”

Most assumed Coogler’s non-involvement had to do with the timing of the sequel, as it rubbed up against his schedule on Black Panther, and in a new interview with Kristopher Tapley on Variety’s Playback podcast, Coogler confirms exactly why he’s not directing Creed 2:

“I mean of course it was possible. Creed was about my dad and me, so it’s a movie that I find difficult to watch. It’s difficult for me to even think about it, I’ve got so many emotional ties to it, not to mention you know how much I care about the people involved. I care deeply for Mike, obviously, deeply for Tessa, and I grew incredibly close with Sly in making that. These are people that I wanna see do well and win at all costs. There’s timing, and that film for whatever reason it had to go when it’s going. I think it’s a blessing that it’s going, man. It’s amazing that they found an incredible filmmaker in Steven Caple Jr., who’s a guy I actually went to film school with, who I have a lot of love and respect for. I can’t wait to see what he does with it.”

Male and female talent, aged 13–40, with real boxing experience are wanted for supporting roles in the upcoming “Creed II,” starring Sylvester Stallone, Michael B. Jordan, and Dolph Lundgren. Talent must be from the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, area and must provide their skill level and the gym where they train. The shoot will begin on March 26 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Some pay will be provided. Apply here!
