Every “Rocky” Movie Deconstructed

On December 11, 2013, FastCoDesign posted The Plot of Every Rocky Movie Deconstructed by Mark Wilson.

Once you’ve read Wilson’s piece you should click over to Rocky Morphology.  Rocky Morphology is a very cool interactive site that allows you to slide along a timeline and see stills from each of the Rocky movies and what category it was in at the time. – Craig

“Rocky” Musical Sets Premiere Dates

From Broadway.com, August 26, 2013: Yo, Broadway! Rocky Musical Sets Dates at the Winter Garden Theatre

The Broadway musical adaptation of Rocky will “eat lightning” beginning February 11 at the Winter Garden Theatre. Featuring an original score by Tony-winning songwriting team Stephen Flaherty and Lynn Ahrens, the previously announced musical includes a book by Tony winner Thomas Meehan and Sylvester Stallone, who won an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay for the 1976 film Rocky. Directed by Alex Timbers, the musical is scheduled to open on March 13.

 

“Fruitville Station” Duo Team with Sly Stallone for “Creed”

The news broke this week that MGM is moving forward with Creed to be directed by Ryan Coogler and to pair him with his Fruitville Station star, Michael B. Jordan in the starring role of Apollo Creed’s grandson.

Coogler and Jordan teamed for Fruitville Station which won the Grand Jury Prize and the Audience Awards at the Sundance Film Festival.  This has been Coogler’s dream project for some time and appears to be on the fast track due to the success of Fruitville Station and the participation of Jordan and Sly Stallone.

Stallone would reprise his role as Rocky Balboa.  Creed will follow the story of Apollo Creed’s grandson who has been raised in privilege thanks to the fortune Apollo Creed earned in the ring. His grandson wants to box, but his family is against it – he doesn’t need the money and his grandfather was killed in the ring.  So he turns to his grandfather’s biggest rival [the man who took his title] and who also cornered his grandfather in the fight that killed him… Rocky Balboa.  Rocky has long been retired and has little desire to return to the sport.

Creed will be produced by Irwin Winkler and Robert Chartoff, who produced the Rocky series, and joining them will be Stallone and Kevin King.
