Creed 3 is set to have a trilogy-best opening weekend at the box office when it opens this Friday (March 3).
The movie is expected to make between $36 and $40 million in the US during its opening weekend. In doing so, the movie would knock Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania off the top spot. Now in its third weekend in theaters, the latest Marvel movie is expected to earn between $16 and $19 million this weekend. The first Creed movie debuted at $29.6 million back in 2015, while 2018's Creed 2 opened to $35.5 million.
Creed 3 marks series star Michael B. Jordan's directorial debut. Jordan also plays Adonis Creed in the trilogy, the son of legendary boxer Apollo Creed who was played by Carl Weathers in the original Rocky movies. He's joined by Jonathan Majors as Damian Anderson, a figure from Adonis' past.
