The former challenger of Adonis Creed in Creed II, Ivan Drago's son Viktor Drago appears in Creed III, suggesting a possible spinoff movie setup.

Viktor Drago makes his return in Creed III not as Adonis Creed's opponent but in a way that suggests a spinoff movie could be in the works for the son of The Siberian Express. Donnie has come out of retirement to go up against Damian Anderson, a childhood friend whose recent prison stay has made him hungry to prove himself in the ring.

Creed II made Rocky a better movie not just because it worked as a Rocky IV sequel, but because it offered the opportunity to explore the main characters' relationship in a way that felt appropriate and organic to the trilogy and the franchise. Viktor and Donnie wipe the slate clean in Creed III and meet in the ring as equals and even allies rather than being blinded by the opinions of their fathers and letting their perspectives be altered.
