Tessa Thompson On Creed, Playing a Character With a Disability

CB: When Creed opens in theaters nationwide today, one of the most interesting elements of the film is not the action, but the love story.

Tessa Thompson's Bianca is a musician with whom Michael B. Jordan's Adonis Johnson develops a relationship in spite of coming from very different worlds. She has a thriving career, her own set of personal and professional concerns that set her apart from Rocky Balboa's wife Adrian, and a progressive hearing loss condition that threatens to take much of that away from her eventually.
