Lace up your gloves—the Creed-Verse is officially expanding. Prime Video just announced that it’s stepping into the ring with Delphi, a brand-new spinoff series set in the world of Creed and Rocky.
The show will center on the next generation of fighters training at the legendary Delphi Boxing Academy, the Los Angeles gym that’s been a cornerstone of the franchise from Apollo Creed to Adonis.
For those who’ve been following since day one, Delphi is sacred ground. Founded by Tony “Duke” Evers (Apollo’s trainer in the Rocky films), the gym is now run by his son, Tony “Little Duke” Evers—played in the recent Creed films by Wood Harris.
It’s where Apollo became a champ, where Adonis found his footing, and now, where a new wave of hungry young fighters are ready to make their mark.
Delphi will give fans an inside look at the gym’s culture, its underdog stories, and the raw grit it takes to turn potential into greatness. Think of it as Friday Night Lights, but with heavy bags and sparring rings instead of helmets and touchdowns.
Michael B. Jordan will executive produce the series through his Outlier Society banner. Jordan has been vocal about expanding the Creed world, and Delphi is just one of several projects in development, including that anime series he teased a while back. (Yes, anime fans, he didn’t forget you.)
Marco Ramirez, whose credits include Daredevil and The Defenders, will serve as showrunner and executive producer alongside Jordan.
This spinoff comes hot on the heels of Creed III’s box office domination, with the trilogy raking in over $660 million worldwide. Creed IV is already in the works, with producer Irwin Winkler confirming last year that Jordan will return to direct and star.
One big question floating around the Creed fandom: Will Jonathan Majors return as Damian Anderson?
The actor’s future has been murky following his legal troubles and fallout with Marvel. However, with Magazine Dreams helping relaunch his image, there’s speculation that he might find a way back into the Creed-Verse—though nothing’s confirmed.
No release date yet, but if Delphi brings even half the intensity, soul, and storytelling of the films, Prime Video might have a knockout on its hands.
Stay tuned—and keep your guard up.
