Rocky Balboa is back in the ring with his new protégé.
On Sunday, Sylvester Stallone shared the first photo of himself and co-star Michael B. Jordan in the upcoming “Rocky” spinoff, “Creed.”

The film co-stars “Fruitvale Station” actor Jordan as Adonis Creed, the grandson of Rocky’s previous rival, Apollo Creed, portrayed by Carl Weathers in the first four “Rocky” films. “Creed” will also star Phylicia Rashad and Tessa Thompson, as well as real-life boxers Anthony Bellew and Andrew Ward. The movie is helmed by “Fruitvale Station” director Ryan Coogler.
Stallone, who isn’t shy about sharing behind-the-scenes photos on social media, posted a potentially spoiler-heavy picture to Twitter last December.
“Creed” opens Nov. 25.
