Rocky to Mentor "Apollo Creed's Grandson?"

Some VERY interesting news coming out about one of my favorite franchises involving the Rocky Balboa character and his old (now deceased) pal Apollo Creed.

Evidently, there is a possible spin off movie involving Apollo Creed's grandson learning to box and being mentored by Rocky. Director Ryan Coogler and actor Michael B. Jordan (Creed's Grandson) are involved in the project.

In the script, Apollo's grandson has no desire to box and yet possesses the gifts and potential of his grandfather. He needs a mentor and seeks out retired fighter Rocky Balboa who isn't eager to return to the boxing world, even as a trainer. Stallone will reprise his role in this. Credit: Deadline.Com
