Michael B. Jordan is earning raves for his role as an on-the-rise boxer in the Rocky film reboot, "Creed." But the shadows of his other 2015 role, Johnny Storm, still haunt him. So he finally opened the gates and talked about how the latest "Fantastic Four" film tanked in the box office and the chatter of fans and critics.

At "The Bill Simmons Podcast," Michael B. Jordan talked about how excited he was when he took the role of Johnny Storm a.k.a. Human Torch in the 2015 film adaptation of the Marvel superhero group, "Fantastic Four." He shared that he is a huge comic book fan and being part of such project was a dream come true. So, no matter if the film did not fare well in the box office or with the hordes of fans and a handful of critics criticizing the film, Jordan says he will "gladly do" the role (or perhaps another superhero movie) again.

While it will be pretty understandable for the actor to start nitpicking at the project now that it's over and done with, he had nothing but good things to say about the 2015 "Fantastic Four." He added that there just are some things that an actor is not in control with when it comes to a particular project.

"You can get up everyday and be like 'I'm going to give 110% to this one thing' or to anything and it still not turn out how people want it or how you expected it to and it doesn't mean that you're a failure or it doesn't mean that you didn't do a great job, it just means that as a whole, as a project, there are so many other pieces that are moving that have nothing to do with you that determine the outcome of a film, so that was kinda one of those things that I had to come to terms with," he recounted.

While he's still learning the lessons of being in a comic book film, Michael B. Jordan is doing a pretty good job representing the story of fictional Adonis Creed, alongside Sylvester Stallone's Rocky Balboa in "Creed."
