48 free Creed Movie trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Aug 2026.
The Creed movies took the Rocky saga somewhere new: Apollo Creed's son Adonis, raised in a Los Angeles mansion but with a fighter's chip on his shoulder, turning up at Rocky Balboa's restaurant in Philadelphia and asking for a trainer. Three films later he has fought a British champion at Goodison Park, avenged his father against a Drago, and, in Creed III, faced the childhood friend who went to prison the night he got away. This quiz has 48 questions across Creed, Creed II and Creed III: the plots and fights, the real boxers who play opponents, Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan behind the camera, Sylvester Stallone's Golden Globe and his very public falling-out over the third film, Bianca and Amara, Ludwig Göransson's music, and the box office. It starts easy (who plays Adonis, who trains him) and gets hard (which football ground doubled as the arena, what Adonis bets in his first sparring session, which anime shaped the Creed III fight choreography). Every answer has been checked against a source, and each question shows its explanation and citation once you answer.
