This adds on to Michael’s list of acknowledgments, just back in November, Michael was named the ‘Sexiest Man Alive’ by People’s magazine. Tessa even says she plans on giving the Emmy-nominated producer ‘a lot of crap’ about his new title.
According to Eminetra Tessa stated, “when he’s involved with me as a director, it’s going to be ammunition” she added “I’m going to tell him to dial down sexy. But we’re not going to achieve that until later this year. So who knows what’s going to happen?”
Michael will also pick up triple duty as Executive Producer in the ninth Rocky installment.
The original Creed movie grossed $173 million at the worldwide box office. The second film earned more than $214 million around the world. Fans can only imagine how Creed III will do in the box office!
