Actor Michael B. Jordan sits down with Ebro in the Morning for a great conversation surrounding the growth of his career, projects he is working on, and the preparation for his success today.

He discusses what you can expect in 'Creed III', directing and producing on the film, carrying the legacy of the franchise, and taking this part of the series to the next level. He also addresses why Sylvester Stallone who famously plays Rocky is not on the film.

Jordan also discusses how important 'Black Panther' and 'Wakanda Forever' were for not only the franchise but movies heavily involving Black actors and Black stories as well, and the tragic loss of Chadwick Boseman.

The New Jersey native also discussed topics such as giving back to the city of Newark, and working on the script for the anticipated 'I Am Legend 2' sequel with Will Smith.

'Creed III' is out on theaters Friday, March 3!

    I met him walking in toronto a few years ago. Super down to earth and no security. He’s one of the few celebs I have met that I enjoyed meeting and was a positive experience. I will continue to support his art.
  • I’m always proud of Michael B Jordan. The bro is very talented. I’ve seen all of his movies from Fruitvale Station, Chronicle, Black Panther as Erik Kilmonger, Friday Nights and the Creed franchise. He’s a positive role model. Stay awesome, Mike!🤓😎👊🏾📚
