The streaming giant recently added 10 notable boxing films to its library, including every movie from the Rocky and Creed franchises, along with the acclaimed sports drama Cinderella Man.
The collection spans nearly five decades of boxing stories and includes:
- Rocky (1976)
- Rocky II
- Rocky III
- Rocky IV
- Rocky V
- Rocky Balboa
- Creed
- Creed II
- Creed III
- Cinderella Man
For many movie fans, the biggest draw is the chance to revisit the entire Rocky saga in one place. The franchise launched with the Oscar-winning original film starring Sylvester Stallone and eventually grew into one of Hollywood's most successful sports properties.
Netflix also added the full Creed trilogy, starring Michael B. Jordan as Adonis Creed, the son of former heavyweight champion Apollo Creed. The films helped introduce the franchise to a new generation while bringing Stallone's Rocky Balboa back into the spotlight.
The addition of Cinderella Man gives boxing fans another acclaimed option. The 2005 film stars Russell Crowe as real-life boxer James J. Braddock, whose unlikely rise during the Great Depression earned him the nickname "The Cinderella Man."
Taken together, the 10-film collection offers everything from underdog stories and championship fights to family drama and redemption arcs.
Whether you're revisiting Rocky's first run up the Philadelphia Museum of Art steps or discovering the Creed movies for the first time, Netflix suddenly became a much friendlier place for boxing fans.
