Creed 3 has been welcomed by critics on a terrific note. In a time where franchise films are struggling with one issue or the other, Creed III seems like a safe investment which is absolutely ready to blow our minds. The addition of Jonathan Majors has really elevated the quality of the film. Michael Jordan would have a tough opponent this time and it won’t be easy for him to rise to the top. Michael Jordan has taken over as the director from Ryan Coogler who gave us the previous two Creed films. The story of the film is by Ryan Coogler and it seems like Creed is haunted by his past in this one. It would be an interesting interplay of drama and action. The threequel can also become the biggest box office opener in the entire Rocky franchise and it is almost inevitable that it will be.
Creed 3 Will Open Big At The Box Office!
As the sports blockbuster is releasing tomorrow, the analysts have prepared the estimated box office opening of the threequel and it is the best for the entire Rocky franchise. Deadline reports that the film is set to earn anywhere between $38 million to $40 million. If the film is anywhere between these two numbers then it will easily become the biggest opening of the Rocky franchise. Even if the film earns $35.5 million then the deed is done. Anything below that would place it in the second spot.
Creed II which released in 2018 during Thanksgiving, opened with $35 million and the original Creed film opened with $29 million, so if the numbers stay true then we will have a new champion outside the boxing ring. Rocky VI in 1985 had opened with $20 million which might seem small but is actually amazing considering that we’re talking about the 80s. The inflation adjusted value of the opening brings it to $55 million which is such a huge number that no film in the Rocky franchise is even close to it. This is always something to keep in mind when comparing the box office openings. Inflation plays a huge role in it. Check out the Full trailer for Creed 3 on YouTube:
