Director Steven Caple Jr has revealed that he thought about including the "Rocky III" character, Clubber Lang, in the upcoming film "Creed II".
In an interview with Uproxx, the director said he had an idea to reintroduce Lang, who fought Sylvester Stallone's Rocky twice in "Rocky III". The character was played by actor Mr.T in the 1982 film.
"I'm not going to lie. There was a moment where I got pretty stingy and was thinking about Clubber Lang. I was like, Dang, wouldn't it be cool if we brought in Clubber Lang?'
