Amazon Prime Video has confirmed the series regulars for its upcoming 'Creed' spinoff, 'Delphi'. The show, first announced in May 2025, follows a group of gifted young boxers in an elite academy. New cast members include Benji Santiago, Juan Castano, and Demián Bichir, while André Holland, Andre Royo, Sofia Black-D’Elia, and Victoria Vourkoutiotis have also joined the main cast.

Why this Matters to You
If you're a fan of the 'Creed' film series or sports dramas, this announcement means you will likely have a new, character-driven series to watch on Amazon Prime Video. The involvement of Michael B. Jordan and the return of Wood Harris's popular character suggests the show may aim to capture the same emotional and inspirational tone as the movies. The detailed character descriptions indicate a focus on family dynamics and personal struggles, which could make for compelling storytelling beyond the boxing ring.
What's Next
With the cast and key creative team now set, production on 'Delphi' appears likely to move forward. The next steps will involve filming the pilot episode directed by José Padilha. Given the established franchise and star power behind it, the series could become a significant addition to Amazon's original programming lineup if it is well-received.
