After working together on “Fruitvale Station” and “Creed,” Michael B. Jordan and director Ryan Coogler are planning to reunite for “Wrong Answer,” a movie about the standardized-test cheating scandal that rocked Atlanta’s education system in 2013, reports the New York Times.
The project is in the early stages so details remain thin, but according to the Times, Jordan will turn his attention to “Wrong Answer” after he plays real-life lawyer Bryan Stevenson in “Just Mercy,” a drama that Destin Daniel Cretton (“Short Term 12”) will direct for Broad Green Pictures.
Back in 2013, 12 Atlanta educators — including five teachers and a principal — were indicted following years of suspicion regarding how Atlanta students had improved their scores on the Criterion-Referenced Competency Test, which is administered throughout the state of Georgia.
Six months ago, 11 of the 12 educators were convicted of racketeering, a felony that carries up to 20 years in prison. Many were convicted of other charges that could lengthen their sentences.
Can't wait for more Coogler! :)

So I'm guessing he's not directing Black Panther then?

Maybe if Marvel allowed more creative freedom, he would.

Doubt it.
Even Kent turned down two major DC projects.

Well you either turn down capeshit, or live long enough to see yourself become Josh Trank.

In other words, he's open to it. Hurry up and hire him before Marvel does, DC!

I don't think he'd do it any time soon.

Lets just hope Creed is good first. Want to make sure Coogler isn't just another Trank.

The film has already screened for a lucky few and the results have been so positive says Showbiz 411 that sequel talk has already begun.
The site says that director Ryan Coogler and actor Michael B. Jordan have done some preliminary work on not just a "Creed" sequel but a potential third film as well.
Their info seems to come direct from the film's producer Irwin Winkler who apparently is not surprised by all the praise being heaped upon it.
Go Coogler, go!

I'll watch the video after I see the film. Don't want to know too much about it.

It's just a short video where the producer and actors praise Coogler and explain how he works as a director.
