AND IT WAS SO MUCH WEIGHT AND SO MUCH, JUST, TRYING TO POWER THROUGH, YOU KNOW?
AND RYAN, YOU KNOW, COOGLER HAD SUCH A -- A, YOU KNOW, A A TREMENDOUS TASK IN FRONT OF
HIM TO EVOLVE THE SCRIPT AND THE STORY IN A WAY THAT STILL KIND OF HONORED CHADWICK, BUT
MOVE THE FRANCHISE FORWARD AS WELL SO FOR ME TO BE ABLE TO COME
BACK, YOU KNOW, AND I HAD TO REALLY KEEP IT UNDER WRAPS, YOU KNOW
I HAD TO GROW MY HAIR OUT. YOU KNOW, I GOT THE LOCS BACK IN AND STUFF LIKE THAT
AND, YOU KNOW, I'M TRAVELING A A LOT OF PLACES. SO I'VE GOT TO, YOU KNOW, WEAR
A HAT, A HOODIE, YOU KNOW, FLY PRIVATE, WHICH ISN'T TOO BAD OF A THING.
[ LIGHT LAUGHTER ] BUT -- BUT BEING ABLE TO KEEP IT UNDER WRAPS WAS REALLY
A TOUGH THING. >> Jimmy: WERE YOU DOING "CREED III" AT THE SAME TIME
>> YEAH, WE WERE BOTH SHOOTING DOWN IN ATLANTA AT THE SAME TIME
SO THAT MADE IT A LITTLE BIT EASIER TO BE ABLE TO BOUNCE AROUND FROM STUDIOS.

YOU KNOW, YOU'RE -- YOU KNOW, YOU'VE GOT A MOUTHPIECE IN SOMETIMES.
YOU GOT GLOVES YOU'RE ALWAYS DEPENDING ON SO MANY PEOPLE.
YOUR -- YOUR TEAM IS EVERYTHING, YOU KNOW SO, TO BE ABLE TO BE IN THE
MIDDLE OF A BOXING SCENE, HONESTLY, IT'S SOMETIMES EASIER, BECAUSE I CAN DIRECT
WHILE I'M ACTING YOU KNOW, IF I NEEDED TO MOVE YOU UP STAGE A LITTLE BIT, I
JUST MOVE A LITTLE BIT LIKE THIS AND THEN I GET THE SHOT THAT I NEED.
'CAUSE I'M ALREADY -- I'M KIND OF I'M LOW-KEY CHEATING, 'CAUSE I'M, LIKE, EDITING WHILE I'M
ACTUALLY ACTING A LITTLE BIT >> Jimmy: WHILE YOU'RE ACTING. YEAH, YOU'RE LIKE -- ALL OF
A SUDDEN, YOU JUST START MOVING AROUND THE SCENE "WOW, YEAH, YOU'RE FINDING YOUR

AS POSSIBLE. LIKE, IT'S ONE OF THE -- IT'S ONE OF THE -
>> Jimmy: COMPLETE YOUR CHECKLIST. >> IT CAN SLOW DOWN YOUR ENTIRE
DAY. YOU KNOW, IF YOU DON'T GET THAT FIRST SHOT OFF VERY EARLY,
YOU'RE PROBABLY NOT GOING TO MAKE YOUR DAY. SO AS SOON AS YOU GET IT OFF,

AND A CURSE, YOU KNOW? THERE'S BEEN, YOU KNOW, EIGHT OTHER MOVIES BEFORE ME, YOU
KNOW AND WE'VE SHOT -- YOU CAN SHOOT A BOXING MATCH SO MANY
DIFFERENT WAYS I THINK 'CAUSE I WAS KIND OF PUT IN A CORNER, IT KIND OF
FORCED ME TO BE MORE CREATIVE AND REALLY FIND -- LIKE, THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX OF HOW TO MAKE
THE FIGHTS DIFFERENT >> Jimmy: YEAH >> SO WE SHOT ALL THE FIGHTS IN
iMAX AND ALSO, I HAD A HUGE JAPANESE ANIME INFLUENCE ON A LOT OF MY
FIGHTERS I'M AN ANIME NERD, SO -- [ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE

SHAPE THAT I'VE EVER SEEN. AND WE NEEDED -- WE NEEDED SOMEBODY THAT WAS GOING TO BE
A, YOU KNOW, ANTAGONIST, BUT SOMEBODY INTIMIDATING. WE WANTED TO MAKE ADONIS FEEL
LIKE AN UNDERDOG SO WHEN YOU SEE JONATHAN MAJORS, HE LOOKS LIKE
HE CAN BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF WHOEVER. >> Jimmy: YEAH

INTERESTING TO HAVE, LIKE, AN ANTAGONIST THAT HAS DEPTH TO HIM.
LIKE, HE'S NOT JUST A, YOU KNOW, TWIRL THE MUSTACHE, "HA, HA, I'M A BAD GUY.
>> Jimmy: YEAH, EXACTLY, YEAH. >> SO, LIKE, YOU'VE GOT TO UNDERSTAND, YOU KNOW, WHY HE IS
THE WAY HE IS. >> Jimmy: IT WAS WELL DONE, MAN.
HOW DO WE -- HOW DO WE SET THIS UP, "CREED III"? >> "CREED III.

YOU KNOW, YOU HAVE TO, KIND OF, LIKE, LOOK INWARD TO, YOU KNOW, TO -
YOU HAVE TO -- YOU HAVE TO FACE YOUR DEMONS IN ORDER TO MOVE FORWARD IN LIFE.
YOU KNOW, YOU CAN'T JUST KEEP MOVING FORWARD WITHOUT ACTUALLY REFLECTING
I THINK, YOU KNOW, CHILDHOOD TRAUMA, THOSE TRANSFORMATIVE YEARS, THINGS THAT YOU'VE BEEN
THROUGH, YOU HAVE TO FACE THOSE THINGS IN ORDER TO HAVE THE COURAGE TO MOVE FORWARD TO DO
NEW THINGS AND I THINK THAT'S A BIG PART OF OUR FILM.

WAS -- IT WAS ONE OF HIS OLD BUDDIES, HE JUST RETURNS, AND HE IS TROUBLE, MAN
