Which Creed film was Michael B. Jordan's directorial debut?

The story behind the answer

Creed III was Michael B. Jordan’s directorial debut.

Jordan stars in the film as Adonis Creed and directed the 2023 sports drama, making it his first feature as a director. He had already built a substantial acting career, including his earlier appearances in Fruitvale Station, Black Panther, and the first two Creed films.

Creed III continues Adonis’s story after his boxing career and introduces Damian Anderson, a childhood friend and former boxing prodigy played by Jonathan Majors. The screenplay was written by Keenan Coogler and Zach Baylin from a story developed with Ryan Coogler.

The film is the third Creed installment and the ninth movie in the wider Rocky franchise. It is also notable because Sylvester Stallone does not appear as Rocky Balboa, although he remained involved as a producer. The earlier films in the answer choices were directed by other filmmakers.
