Actress Tessa Thompson has confirmed that Michael B. Jordan will make his directorial debut with Creed III.
Jordan and Tessa Thompson co-starred in the first two instalments of the boxing franchise.
Thompson shared the update while speaking to MTV News, reports etcanada.com.
Asked about Jordan being crowned People Magazine`s new "Sexiest Man Alive", she said: "I haven`t talked to him about it because I`m gonna pretend it hasn`t happened. We`re gonna make another &lsquo;Creed` very soon, and I don`t need the &lsquo;Sexiest Man Alive` to&hellip;you know what I mean, I just don`t need it. I don`t need any of it. It`s too much for me to shoulder. It`s too much for me to handle."
She went on to reveal that Jordan will direct the upcoming third film in the Creed franchise.
She said: "It`s going to be ammo, I think, for me, when he is engaging with me as a director. I`m just going to tell him to dial down the sexiness. But we`re not gonna make it until later in the year. So who knows what happens? Another man will be -- I don`t know if he will still be the &lsquo;Sexiest Man Alive` in six months."
Creed amassed $173.6 million at the box office on release in 2015, while Creed II earned $214.1 million. It is unclear if Sylvester Stallone, who wrote Creed II, will return as the iconic boxer-turned-trainer Rocky Balboa in Creed III.
