Michael B. Jordan fans, get ready to pick your jaw up off the floor after you see the new poster for Creed II. Your boy is ripped.

On Tuesday (June 19), MGM and Warner Bros. gave a first look at the new Rocky-franchise sequel: a black and white poster featuring a very serious, boxing glove-clad Jordan standing in front of a "II" sign. Check it out below.

As far as the plot line, the official logline reads as follows: “Life has become a balancing act for Adonis Creed. Between personal obligations and training for his next big fight, he is up against the challenge of his life. Facing an opponent with ties to his family’s past only intensifies his impending battle in the ring. Rocky Balboa is there by his side through it all and, together, Rocky and Adonis will confront their shared legacy, question what’s worth fighting for, and discover that nothing’s more important than family. Creed II is about going back to basics to rediscover what made you a champion in the first place, and remembering that, no matter where you go, you can’t escape your history.”

The film is slated to hit theaters around Thanksgiving.

Jordan took home a bucket of gold popcorn Monday night (June 18), winning in the Best Villain category of the MTV Movie & TV Awards for his role as N'Jadaka/Erik Killmonger in Black Panther.
