Screenwriter Robert Lawton is set to write the “Creed” spinoff “Drago” for MGM, multiple insiders with knowledge of the project exclusively tell TheWrap.

Although plot details are being kept under wraps, “Drago” centers on Russian fighter Ivan Drago (Dolph Lundgren), who first appeared as the antagonist in 1985’s “Rocky IV,” and his son Viktor Drago (Florian Munteanu) who was last seen as the antagonist in 2018’s “Creed 2.”

Lawton’s spec script “Becoming Rocky” about the making of the first “Rocky” film, was one of 50 scripts that won a 2021 Nicholl Fellowship. MGM execs were impressed by the spec and the “Drago” take that Lawton came up with, giving him the job.

I'm interested. I personally wanted more Drago after the restaurant scene between him and Rocky in Creed 2.

I feel like this would only work if it had a comedy element like Cobra Kai.
