Michael B. Jordan & Tessa Thompson Strive for Realistic Love | 'Creed II' Interview | Fandango

[@valhalla1240]

It was quite unique to see a movie with a male lead, playing a boxer - literally fighting, and being wounded from that - come home to NOT JUST ANOTHER supporting - and nothing else - woman. She had her own storyline, her struggle, her ideas, her opinions, her voice. AND that made the story better and the relationship more believable. It's so different when you watch a film and you know why the lead man fell in love with the love-interest in the first place.

[@RaphaelPHorever]

This interviewer is incredible. Seriously, every question she asked was so well studied and well articulated. Incredibly professional.

[@baetoulk5888]

What a sweet and sincere interviewer. Good job Jacqueline! And Tessa is soo smart and lovely and well spoken, I really love her.

[@blacktreemedia]

He played a dad in Fruitvale Station 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@newmoon7008]

I was going to write that lol she needs to do her homework

[@alliefrankmusic]

Yeah but Oscar Grant was a real person, he got to create this character of Adonis and evolve the character to his liking so I can bet it’s a bit different

[@denisedenisehuxtable4183]

Stupid

[@thehaitianway7706]

La Lune I think she was only talking about the Creed franchise.

[@neadageorge4009]

Right! 😕

[@youso91]

Valkyrie and Killmonger, the greatest love story in the MCU

[@kimberlybuckner2717]

OMG YESSS

[@tiarabrown4659]

This interviewer is amazing! Very insightful questions and you notice her genuine enjoyment of the film. We need more of her Fandango!

[@yossyo3226]

Whoever this interviewer is ,she is just amazing and asks such insightful questions ❤️ loved this

[@geekkastproductions3707]

It’s funny how the interviewer thought this was the first time he was playing a dad, when he played a dad in Fruitvale Station, which she brings up in the interview like a minute later.

[@rahii]

Geekkast Productions Oscar dies in Fruitvale Station. That was the heart of the story. In Creed 2 he’s an existing father. Black Americans don’t get that representation often enough in big movies so it was important for her to ask that in my opinion.

[@AfroVibez]

Why she said black love? Because it is rarely portray in a positive light on mainstream movies. The stereotype is single parent family or a turbulent one. So for the nuances of that love to be specific to a culture on such a universal movie, it should be applauded and the director commended for his incredible insight rather the preferred oversight...

[@RFXmultimedia]

not at all, the interviewer should not have even been told to say "black love" like it was non-existent. I'm sick of African-Americans "labeling" what they are supposed to look like in a relationship smh. Its just a film with two black people in love in it. And to say that black love is only shown in that black movie is another versed statement that only a person with an opinion would make. Its like your just talking for no reason.

[@dre-p3058]

It's not a steroytype. Stereotype is something u accuse a certain group of ppl of doing that they or no one else particularly does. When u talk about black love it's not a steroytype. Look at the statistics. Most black women are single moms, least wanted and at the bottom of the foodchain for All men including black men and they are most hated by black men. Why u think ppl like Serena chose to marry and have kids with a white men when she was very vocal about the black cummunity throughout her career

[@MrsHarder08]

The thing I didn't like about that comment was, she knows all of the scrutiny that MBJ gets when it comes to his dating preference. The comment was not needed especially since the follow-on question was not built off of that question. Also, there are numerous amount of "black love," portrayed in a positive light in countless movies. What are you talking about? What movies are yall watching?

[@SuperDiggem]

SoulVibez I’m pretty sure she said black Love because they’re both black and in love. That’s all

[@amgienarra]

SoulVibez what has to be Love-become race(black Love)? Love is chemistry!

[@briannamcclinton1950]

I like the second Creed more than the first one. Creed 2 is my favorite .

[@91WriterzStatus]

Now I can't wait to see it.

[@colechester2942]

I would have to disagree but 2 is very close to one imo

[@briannamcclinton1950]

Your right👍. I just like parts of the move Creed 2. I think both of the Creed movies is good.

[@colechester2942]

Brianna Mcclinton yeah i thought the cinematography was better in creed 2 and there were some awesome scenes

[@Yaooosteve]

The montage from creed 1 is better. I felt like but in creed 2 the movie hits more emotionally especially the scenes with the baby

[@91WriterzStatus]

"Normalizing our love," great quote from Tessa on the relationship scenes between Adonis and Bianca.

[@boybye7986]

Tessa is my favourite actress ever I really admire her I want to be an actress when I Finnish school ❤️❤️❤️

[@AA-qb7ni]

Wish you alot of luckkk xxx hope it goes well❣

[@esquibelle]

Finland has very good schools Kazza Kk

[@SoundHumility]

I'm glad Tessa mentioned LOVE JONES.. that's one of the greatest classic love movies

[@TheAmerika99]

Why do people freak out when black people celebrate their culture or use specific terms like "black love"? If you don't understand the significance, either educate yourself on it or let it go and move on, it's not for you. Stop being so insecure and offended.

[@KSP30]

Tell me about it.🙄

[@KSP30]

We not allowed to do nothing! Or have anything and irony is folks feel excluded! Like brahhhhhh! we weren’t included in first place! There would be no reason for us make stuff our own....HBCU’s came about because Blacks folks was not allowed to go to Harvard because hello we Black...and who made that a thing...🤔🤔 Not Black people!! Your ancestors Love.😶.Black love came about because given the history going as far back as slavery we were separated! Our house holds and hello look at the prison industrial complex! One big “separate people of color aka mostly Black people” machine. So we celebrate any form of Black love or togetherness,because it’s significant to show that we love regardless of how society put us down! These labels are affirmations! And they exist because we are worthy! And we have to remember that!! And if your mad go look in the mirror and ask your self why? Why must everything we do gotta include you? That’s that privilege brozay.

[@jessicacande6822]

The WORST is when our own black folk don’t understand or have something to say against it.

[@melvinarringtonj]

She’s a great interviewer. Good job love !

[@reafaasa8065]

MELVIEE B she is a good interviewer I like tessa Thompson and Michael b Jordan creed II was good I'm going to see it again with my boyfriend but I'm goin to da mornin showing

[@reafaasa8065]

I love the movie it was good as hell

[@alldiva7507]

I didn't particularly care for the interviewer. Personal opinion. I love how well Michael articulates his answers in all of his interviews.

[@devworlddaily]

Thats why im so obsessed cos its not the usual “love” crap u see in movies and shows

[@candaceeason4110]

Tessa Thompson is super inspiring! Love her in every film!

[@hoodmayes]

Where's the Stallone interview U can never forget a legend like him

[@Lanz22]

First name Surname filming Rambo 5

[@liamonet3330]

I just peeped that they had two actors from Marvel Universe. I forgot she was in Thor. Super Amazing 😍❤️

[@denisedenisehuxtable4183]

That movie she played in with Thor was so god-awful I stopped watching after the first 30 minutes

[@h3nz325]

@@denisedenisehuxtable4183 thats interesting - what about the film did you dislike so much - personally I loved Ragnarok, I thought the comedic aspect was great, it had the power to take the edge off of intense moments, and led zeppelin was the perfect music too. I also found the character arc of Thor extremely interesting in this film, with the idea of the character being brought down to nothing with the loss of his hammer and the electrical control device then he was trapped on the junk planet - it makes the ending for more interesting when Thor comes to terms with his power and the idea of Ragnarok or the idea that someone else could be more powerful than him - as previously he denies hulk beating him, and believes he is the strongest avenger till at the end when he understands the hela is more powerful etc etc.

[@gloriajjackson4195]

Miss Tess is so right. I love how Adonis embodied the intuitiveness of the Black man when he can so easily read your expressions, and just ask what? Their romance and eventually falling in love seemed so real to me. More movies, tv shows, plays, etc, should show us more in that light because Black love is stronger, fun, deep, and playful than it usually shows. Great job.

[@Dwayne_19K]

Wow she really made him think nice interviewing skills

[@jaylannowell187]

She’s a hell of an interviewer

[@yasinstevens4620]

Creed I &II were really intense and suspenseful. I literally had to mute for whole scene, pause numerous times and take a walk. LITERALLY!!!! This is one of the few most intense movie I've watched.

They really did look like son and Dad

[@thexnatorscriven9700]

I gotta say that as a 18 year old black boy I personally get what every body in the comment section is saying when they say there is no such thing as black love only human love and I mean I get it however at the same time black love just simply sounds like what it means two blacks in a relationship and then you could also say there along with black love is white love Hispanic love. Etc so people in the comment section don't let it stop you from getting sleep at night😂🤣

[@natalie651]

Right out the gate, this girl. Can't even be mad. He makes it hard to play it cool.

[@OyayoTheStorm]

Aye... I have noticed that what he's seen with out, socially, it has been a variation, but when he Does talk about representation and pride, it seems genuine, so I can only hope he has an equal-opportune heart, and not a preference.

Agreed No one points out that Viktor Drago looks an awful a lot like Ricky Conlan I feel like Creed 2 was a hybrid of Rocky 2, 3, and 4 While the first one shared a similarity with Rocky 1

I disagree
