Between actual deaths (Mick, Paulie, Apollo, Gazzo, Apollo’s trainer, Rocky Jr.) and cinematic deaths (Adrian, Apollo, and Mick) there’s not much likelihood of another Rocky installment. :-\\

Unless Rocky, Thunderlips, and Clubber Lang come up with a story line.  8)

They are continuing it with the Apollo Creed movies which is about Apollo's son. I saw the first movie on a plane heading to Puerto Rico years ago. I don't know what sequel they are up to now.

Perhaps Creed IV could have a plot where Creed coaches an aging Rocky in a grudge match against Clubber Lang.  8)

I know Rocky was in the first Creed movie. Haven't seen the others. But I'm sure Sly is in it. He can't resist. He even made a cameo in Stayin' Alive that he directed.
