Ryan Coogler’s ‘Black Panther’ has welcomed the actor Michael B. Jordan to its cast.

Good news below….

‘Panther‘ recently bagged a 2018 release date and a leading actor in Chadwick Boseman who portrays the African superhero in ‘Captain America: Civil War.’

This week, he joins Coogler to welcome Jordan to the project before filming kicks off at the start of next year.

‘The Hollywood Reporter’ reveals:

It is unclear who Jordan would play but one source told THR that it could be a villain. Marvel had no comment.

Boseman and Black Panther were introduced in Captain America: Civil War, which crossed the $700 million worldwide mark in under a week and a half.

The character, whose name is T’Challa, is the warrior king of Wakanda, Marvel’s fictional African nation that is rich in an unbreakable alloy called vibranium.

Black Panther has a Feb. 2, 2018, release date, with production set to start in early 2017.

Panther won’t be Jordan’s superhero movie debut. The actor last year starred as Johnny Storm/The Human Torch in Fox’s Marvel franchise, The Fantastic Four.

 

Lupita Nyong’o is also expected to star in the release.

    In my personal opinion Mike should have played Black Panther with his s*** fine azzzz. Lol I’m just saying ???

      Chadwick makes a great Black Panther. Nobody else would have done that role justice like him.

        Chadwick Boseman is an all around great actor! He can play any role and play tha hell out of it! I became a huge fan after he played James Brown! He’s the next Denzel to me.

    Get those roles King.

    Not surprised, him and that director are close. I heard Lupita is in talks as well since she has gret tis with Disney as of late. Man I wish some way Marvel could talk to Fox and let her play Storm. This film will be lit.

      I want Angela Bassett to play storm.

      • King Mark111 /.\ May 13, 2016

        I love her, but she’s too old.

    • Credits May 13, 2016

      Have you seen how youthful Angela looks on American horror story?

      • King Mark111 /.\ May 13, 2016

        Yes she looks amazing, but no. I would LOVE for her to be in the film tho, just not as Storm.

    Isn’t michael in fantastic 4? If they have him in black panther, his character in fantastic 4 should crossover or else they will eff up the marvel universe.

    • Meteorite May 13, 2016

      Well Chris Evans played the same exact role as Michael B in the first Fantastic 4 and he’s been able to play Captain America with no problems

      • Credits May 13, 2016

        True! But they totally rebooted the film after chris, the way they did Spider-Man.

    • Meteorite May 13, 2016

      Then you have nothing to worry about ?

    RT: I won’t lie, I am a little nervous about The Black Panther movie as seeing how it will be a predominantly black cast. I question will people still be eager to see it like they would Captain America or Thor or one of the other many popular white characters?…Is the world really ready for that?
    I hope so. I want this movie to do as great and be treated as equally great as say Iron Man or The Avengers. Its time to get past these racial hangups and it seems like we’re ready to make progress, especially considering all these complaints online and in the media about hollywood white washing every role. So it would seem we’re ready to make that step. I am optimistic yet I am nervous but I’m ready.

  6. Yeee May 13, 2016

    A lot of people think he looks good. I overheard a girl say she would let him f*** her in her ***hole

  7. RealNegro May 13, 2016

    Awesome. I can’t wait for the movie. Civil War was awesome as well.
