‘Creed III’ Makes Over $100 Million In Box Office During First Weekend

Creed III has reached major box office success since hitting theaters last weekend (March 3). The directorial debut of lead actor Michael B. Jordan’s landed over $100 million globally.

According to The Numbers, Creed III gained $62,655,104 domestically and $43,000,000 internationally, making the film the highest-grossing film this week. Coming in second place is Elizabeth Banks’ movie Cocaine Bear and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania

took third.

In addition to Jordan’s film being the number one film at the box office, it also received an A- score on Cinema Score. Ryan Coogler’s 2015 Creed (the Creed franchise’s first film) made a worldwide gross of $173,567,581 and Creed II made over $200 million. In other words, this is the highest the Creed/Rocky franchise has earned in just the opening weekend.

Creed III also earned

87% Tomatometer and 96% audience scores.

On Rotten Tomatoes, AV Club’s Murtada Elfadl wrote in his review of the film, “Creed III captures the spectacle and ceremony of boxing, providing the audience with an entertaining thrill ride. It doesn’t reinvent the wheel, owing much to its predecessors in the Rocky and Creed series in story structure and character development.”

Tom Beasley from The Digital Fix wrote, “A hell of a calling card for its director, who flexes every muscle as both actor and filmmaker to construct a movie that, by excluding the Stallone-shaped elephant in the room, sees Creed break out on its own.”

Kyle Logan from Cultured Vultures said, “Despite some overwrought melodrama and questionable politics, Creed III

succeeds as an emotionally powerful and visually exciting boxing movie.”

Creed III stars Jordan, Tessa Thompson, Mila Davis-Kent, Phylicia Rashad, Jonathan Maojors, Florian Munteanu, Canelo Álvarez and Wood Harris. The movie is currently in theaters and tickets can be bought at a nearby theater or online.
