Tracy Morgan dropped by Jimmy Kimmel's post-Oscars bash on Sunday to properly tease audiences with his own makeshift Creed sequel, the aptly titled Clubber. In the totally real and definitely not a spoof clip's opening moments, Morgan recalls his life as a multifaceted fighter of various forces. "All I asked for was extra honey mustard!" Morgan insists, referencing his alleged encounter with a less-than-generous Wendy's drive-thru employee.
Thankfully, Clubber has Tracy Morgan looking like this:
J.K. Simmons and Mike Tyson also stop in for some Oscar-worthy turns of their own, with Tyson taking Mr. T's place as the senior Clubber. The motivation for this encouraging bout of man-v-man turmoil? According to Morgan's already iconic character, that responsibility belongs mostly to banned gym sandwiches.
All jokes aside, an actual Creed sequel (thankfully) seems like a foregone conclusion. "A character so rich as this, and the world he's in, I want to see what happens to him next and what he does," Michael B. Jordan told the Associated Pressin November. "There’s no doubt that we’re making a Creed 2," MGM CEO Gary Barber confirmed to Variety in January, which is about as definitive as it gets. Though no official word has been given, one can presume Tracy Morgan's iconic Clubber will have little to do with this proposed follow-up.
