Tessa Thompson, best known for her role as Jackie Cook on “Veronica Mars”, has joined the cast of Ryan Coogler’s “Creed”, says Deadline.
The “Rocky” spin-off stars Michael B.Jordan as Apollo Creed’s grandson, and Sylvester Stallone as – of course – Rocky Balboa.
Thompson, whose other credits include “When A Stranger Calls” and “Dear White People”, next appears in MLK biopic “Selma”.
The movie is set to begin filming early next year.
