Any reservations about whether the world needs another Rocky movie have officially been put to rest with the arrival of the first trailer for Creed.

The spin-off film stars Michael B. Jordan as Apollo Creed's son, Adonis, who follows his father's footsteps into the boxing ring. Adonis travels to Philadelphia where he tracks down Rocky (Sylvester Stallone), his father's nemesis and later friend, before Apollo's death at the hand of Ivan Drago in Rocky IV.

Creed reunites Jordan with Fruitvale Station director Ryan Coogler, who co-wrote the script with Aaron Covington. The film is set to hit theaters on November 25.
