Here’s what the Creed II stars had to say…

Dolph, on the current state of U.S.-Russian relations resembling those reflected in Rocky IV: “I do think that marketing-wise it’s quite good.”

Florian, on whether Rocky fans might root for the Dragos this time around: “People are gonna be shocked. They underestimate [Lundgren], underestimate his abilities as an actor. Only see him maybe as ‘badass motherf–ker who wants to destroy everything.’ They’re going to be fascinated about the way he’s playing Ivan Drago now. There will be tears for us.”

Florian, on his “little breakdown” after shooting: “It took me a month to be Florian again. I was telling Dolph: We never smiled once in that movie.”
