Nearly half a century after audiences first met the Italian Stallion, Sylvester Stallone steps back into the world of Rocky Balboa for one last, emotionally charged round. Set to release in November 2025, Rocky VII promises to be both a gripping boxing drama and a heartfelt farewell to one of cinema’s most enduring heroes.

This chapter finds Rocky living quietly in Philadelphia, still running his modest restaurant and mentoring young fighters at a local gym. But when his former protégé’s son—talented but troubled—gets caught in the web of an illegal fight circuit, Rocky is forced to return to the spotlight. What begins as mentorship turns into a battle for redemption, as Rocky must guide the young boxer through the most dangerous bout of his life.
Michael B. Jordan returns as Adonis Creed in a pivotal supporting role, while newcomer Diego Luna plays the gifted but conflicted fighter Rocky takes under his wing. On the other side of the ring is Dave Bautista as a towering, ruthless champion backed by powerful underground interests.

Director Stallone has hinted that Rocky VII will blend the intimate, street-level grit of the original film with the high-stakes spectacle fans expect. Training montages return—snowy streets, battered punching bags, and those familiar steps—accompanied by Bill Conti’s iconic score, now reimagined for Rocky’s final chapter.
“This isn’t about titles or belts,” Stallone says. “It’s about passing the torch, and making sure the fire never goes out.”
Release Date: November 14, 2025
