Michael B. Jordan's Knockout Trilogy Exits Netflix: Don't Miss Its Final Streaming Rounds!
Michael B. Jordan's illustrious career, marked by critical acclaim in "Black Panther" and an Oscar win for "Sinners," continues with exciting new projects. While fans anticipate another "Creed" movie and "The Thomas Crown Affair," the existing "Creed" trilogy is set to leave Netflix on August 31.
Michael B. Jordan has firmly established himself as one of Hollywood's leading stars, building on a career that saw a massive breakout in recent years. His villainous portrayal of Killmonger in the first "Black Panther" movie cemented his status, propelling him into the global spotlight. In 2025, Jordan further showcased his versatile acting prowess by reuniting with long-time collaborator and friend Ryan Coogler for the vampire horror sensation "Sinners." This film was a monumental success, grossing over $370 million at the box office and earning critical acclaim, becoming one of the highest-grossing original films of all time. For his compelling dual performance as Smoke and Stack in "Sinners," Jordan received the prestigious Oscar for Best Lead Actor, besting notable contenders like Timothée Chalamet and Leonardo DiCaprio.
Long before his Marvel tenure and Oscar-winning blockbusters, Jordan took on the significant mantle of leading the iconic "Rocky" franchise. He stepped into the role of Adonis Creed, the son of Apollo Creed (portrayed by the late Carl Weathers), in the critically and commercially successful "Creed" film series. These films effectively revitalized the boxing saga, with Jordan starring as the central character. The "Creed" movies have been a popular streaming option for most of the current year, captivating audiences on Netflix.
However, fans looking to revisit Adonis Creed's journey on Netflix have a limited window. The streaming giant recently announced that all three "Creed" films are slated for removal from the platform at the end of the month. The last opportunity to watch the entire trilogy on Netflix will be August 31. The future streaming home for the "Creed" movies following their departure from Netflix remains unclear at this time. Nevertheless, viewers will still be able to rent or purchase the films through various Video On Demand (VOD) platforms, including Prime Video and Apple TV, ensuring continued access to the popular series.
Looking ahead, Michael B. Jordan's directorial and acting career shows no signs of slowing down. It has been officially confirmed that another "Creed" movie is in active development, with Jordan not only set to reprise his starring role as Adonis Creed but also to return to the director's chair. His directorial debut on "Creed 3" was a significant moment, though the film has faced some controversy in recent years concerning the role of his co-star Jonathan Majors. In addition to his commitments to the next "Creed" installment, Jordan is also attached to lead and direct the third iteration of "The Thomas Crown Affair," where he will co-star alongside Adria Arjona and Kenneth Branagh. This anticipated film is scheduled to open in theaters on March 5, 2027. Furthermore, Jordan is also slated to lead other new projects, including "The Fifth Wing." As these projects unfold, fans are encouraged to catch the "Creed" movies before their Netflix removal and stay updated on Jordan's future endeavors.
