Carl Weathers (January 14, 1948 - February 1, 2024) was an American actor, director and American football linebacker. He was known for his roles as boxer Apollo Creed in the first four Rocky films (1976-1985)
I still cant believe he is actually dead. When I started going to the gym and lost my motivation the Rocky movies reminded me why I wanted to go in the first place. To take better care of myself R.IP Carl Weathers. Both you and the character Apollo Creed inspired me and many others to take matters into your own hands. The Rocky 3 training montage was my personal favorite and will never be the same. I will always be greatful for what you have done for us ❤❤
Un grand monsieur, un grand acteur, une personne très simple, j'ai toujours eu depuis mon adolescence un grand respect et une administration pour ce monsieur. Repose en paix Carl.
Man, my generation grew up with this Characters, despite they were fictional, they inspired us, they were there when the shadows showed up and tried to take out our spirit, that fight spirit. R. I. P. Apollo Creed.
We will remember Carl for who he really was, and that's a great guy who gave his best and motivated all of us in doing our best. Keep on punching Apollo.
We will miss you Carl. Another great man and awesome action hero taken from us. I'll never stop watching my favourite rocky movies, predator, action Jackson and others just to see you again. RIP amazing man. 💪💫🤩💯🔥
