Jordan backs Delphi cast rollout on Amazon Video with 14 names
amazon video has set the cast for Delphi, the new Creed-universe series from Michael B. Jordan’s Outlier Society. The project is already in production in Los Angeles, making this more than a development update: the franchise’s first live-action TV offshoot now has faces, roles, and a pilot director attached.
Jordan and Ramirez line up Delphi
Michael B. Jordan is backing the series through Outlier Society, with Marco Ramirez serving as showrunner and José Padilha directing the pilot. That combination gives Amazon a cleaner launch path than a typical franchise extension, because the creative leadership is already fixed while the cast expands around it.
Delphi follows a group of gifted young boxers in an elite academy fighting to achieve their dreams and reach the pinnacle of the sport. Benji Santiago will play Santi Torres, Juan Castano will play Nico Torres, and Demián Bichir will play Hector Torres, placing a family line at the center of the academy setting.
Bichir, Holland, and Harris join
Demián Bichir will appear as a series regular, alongside André Holland as Teddy “T-Bone” Parker. Andre Royo will play Elmer Tatum, Sofia Black-D’Elia will play Bobbi Weiss, and Victoria Vourkoutiotis will play Kai Katsaros, giving the show a sizable supporting bench before viewers see a frame.
Wood Harris will play Little Duke in a recurring role, adding one of the more recognizable names from the broader Creed orbit to a cast that is being built for a series format rather than a one-off feature return. Niles Fitch, Dasan Frazier, Graham Patrick Martin, Brittany Adebumola, Rene Moran, Okieriete Onaodowan, and Breanna Yde round out the named ensemble.
First live-action Creed series
Delphi is the first live-action series extension of the Creed film franchise, which is the real business point here. Amazon is not just licensing a familiar title; it is testing whether a movie universe can carry onto television with a full academy roster instead of a single lead-driven story.
That setup puts pressure on the show to work on two levels at once: it has to satisfy franchise continuity and stand on its own as a sports drama about young boxers chasing a place at the top. With production already underway in Los Angeles, the cast announcement turns the series from a corporate plan into an actual screen project with enough named roles to suggest Amazon expects it to run beyond a simple pilot curiosity.
