On Monday (October 17), Jordan spoke during a press conference about stepping behind the camera for Creed III. His longtime collaborator Ryan Coogler directed the film series' first installment, while Steven Caple Jr. directed Creed II.

“For me it was the perfect time, growing up on set and in the industry for over 20 years, starting out doing background work and extra work and just kind of just seeing the sets evolve, seeing everybody’s job, seeing how a real production storytelling took place, I finally got to this place in my career where I wanted to tell a story and not just be in front of the camera, not just execute somebody else’s vision," Jordan said.

Creed III premieres on March 3, 2023. Watch the official trailer below.
