Tessa Thompson Talked With Us About Creed3 and Introduces Us to Her Five-Year-Old Rescue Dog Thompson also reveals which of her previous projects he's been on set for.
Michael B. Jordan’s directorial debut, Creed III, is now in theaters and stars Jordan, Jonathan Majors, and Tessa Thompson. Set three years after the events of Creed II, Jordan reprises his role as Adonis “Donnie” Creed, now the undisputed heavyweight champion. Donnie has not only made a name for himself with his career, and retired, but has built a life with his wife, Bianca, played by Thompson, who’s recently had to give up her own dreams of performing to salvage what’s left of her hearing.
COLLIDER: So, I'm obviously here to talk about Creed III, but not really anymore. It all changed. So what is the name of your dog?Rescue?THOMPSON: Yeah, we go a lot of places together, and we just got back from the press tour and he couldn't come. So that's why I was like, “You're coming to work today because I'm not leaving you.” He actually spent some time on the Creed III set, and he has been in a film. He’s sorely disappointed that I didn't put him in this one.
Okay, so obviously this is Michael [B. Jordan’s] first time directing a movie, and I'm curious, what surprised you about working with Michael as a director that perhaps you weren't expecting? Oftentimes, people like to talk about making a sequel or a prequel to whatever it may be. This is the third Creed movie.Right, exactly. What is it like being part of a franchise like this – that’s not Marvel – that resonates with so many people?
