Michael B. Jordan’s latest film, the third installment in the Creed franchise, recently had its premiere. Many reporters flocked to the red carpet, but one in particular stood out.
According to Variety, the host of “The Morning Hustle,” Lore’l, had revealed on a podcast that she in fact use to tease the Black Panther actor in high school for having the same name as the former NBA basketball player and having dreams of becoming an actor.
At the premiere, Lore’l commented to Jordan how the two “go way back, all the way back to Chad Science in Newark.” Jordan responded, “Oh yeah, I was the corny kid, right?” in response to the host’s teasing in the past. Lore’l replied that he hadn’t heard her actually say that, but only heard her make fun of his name. The actor then respectfully responded, “I heard it. It’s all good. What’s up?” via Variety.
Lore’l ended the conversation with admitting to the actor that he was, “obviously killing things out here” and was “not corny anymore.”
The movie’s other main characters Tessa Thompson, Jonathan Majors and Mila Davis-Kent, who plays Creed’s daughter, assembled at the film’s premiere. Other celebrities such as Serena Williams and Big Sean also attended the Los Angeles premiere. The film is set to release to US theaters on March 3.
