While Michael B. Jordan is returning for the third installment of Creed, a new writer will be taking the narrative reigns. It's been confirmed that Zach Baylin will pen the new addition to the franchise.

　　As a writer, Baylin's credits include King Richard, which is set to be released in 2020, and a short film with an unknown release date. King Richard features Will Smith as the lead and is a biographical drama following Richard Williams, the father and coach of tennis superstars Venus and Serena Williams.

　　Now Playing: History Of Rocky Films | From Rocky To Creed

　　With this limited information about Baylin's writing, it's difficult to speculate what his take on the popular boxing franchise might be. His script for King Richard has received praise from the film industry, though, since it placed second on the 2018 annual Black List, a survey that documents film professional's opinions on the most liked screenplay not yet produced.

　　A director has yet to be confirmed for the movie, and no other plot details are known. The production start date for the film is also up in the air at this time. Jordan, who plays Adonis Creed, is set to film an as of yet untitled David O. Russell project and then Denzel Washington’s A Journal for Jordan, so it may be awhile until we get Creed 3.
