Apollo Creed is a fictional character from the Rocky films. He serves as the main antagonist in Rocky and Rocky II and as a protagonist in Rocky III and Rocky IV. He was played by Carl Weathers. He is a tough but agile boxer who is, when the series begins, the undisputed heavyweight world champion.
I'm going to, of course, ignore Rings of Power. As usual, no real people and no characters from LOTR. I might be a bit more flexible about gender-swapping roles for this one because LOTR has very few female characters, though.
