BREAKING

Earlier today I blew up my own twitter feed in the quest for new followers and boy did twitter nation respond!

Anyway, there has been much speculation as to the upcoming two Marvel films which have yet to be announced. It’s painfully obvious one of them is going to be the sequel to the Avengers.

But what about the other one?

Without further adieu, let’s get right to it…

Hell yes folks…

THE BLACK PANTHER is going to headline his own film!

How do I know? Let’s say I got it from FOUR different trusted sources.

May 3rd 2013 – Iron Man 3
November 15th 2013 – Thor 2
April 4th 2014 – Captain America 2
May 16th 2014 – Untitled Marvel Movie #1 (Black Panther?)

Unknown: Ant-Man

 

[DMczaf]

Starring Ryan Reynolds.

 

[Benutzer]

Starring Ryan Reynolds.

 

[Hot Coldman]

Michael Fassbender IS T'Challa

 

[FStop7]

Starring Sheamus from WWE.

 

[SoulPlaya]

Would be happy to see it, but does Black Panther really have a "HUGE" urban following? I grew up right in Chicago, and no one I know has ever mentioned him. Oh well, Marvel knows how to properly hype a movie.

 

[a Master Ninja]

Michael Jai White please.

 

[Divvy]

I knew it. Black Panther is the perfect candidate for the next film.

 

[richiek]

Black Panther/Wakanda referenced in Iron Man 2:

Idris Elba should be T'Challa.

 

[Trojita]

Michael Jai White or Idris Elba (He's both a Norse God and Black Panther).

 

[alba]

Michael Jai White please.

This, please.

 

[GuessWho]

This is excellent news. I actually really liked the BET show. Great theme too.

 

[Grizzlyjin]

Michael Jai White please.

If they plan on making this direct to dvd, yeah.

 

[G-Fex]

Michael Jai White or Idris Elba (He's both a Norse God and Black Panther).

Michael Jai White is the only answer.

He's the bestest ever ever ever.

 

[Funky Papa]

Idris Elba should be T'Challa.

Already cast as Heimdall.

They dun guffed.

 

[Fusebox]

In this post-racist society I propose we rename him to just 'Panther'.

 

[Slayven]

Black Panther, a guy that Batman says is hardcore.

 

[the chris]

Michael Jai White please.

I'd be okay with this.

Don't fuck this up Marvel.

 

[The Anti-Monitor]

Neither was Iron Man, or the pretty much confirmed Ant-Man.

Black Panther is awesome when they don't get crazy on the Mary Sue-ness. Not quite as excited as I'd be with Dr. Strange but much better than Guardians of the Galaxy.

 

[Big Baybee]

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay

What? iron Man was pretty popular when I was a kid.

 

[jon bones]

this is going to be great!

 

[Aske]

Great news. It'll be sweet seeing him in Avengers 2.

 

[VGChampion]

Meh. Not interested in the guy.

 

[richiek]

Already cast as Heimdall.

They dun guffed.

This guy also played The Punisher.

Let's not forget Chris Evans as Human Torch/Captain America.

 

[Tobor]

Interesting. The Casting will even more interesting.

 

[Messypandas]

is this a sequel to pink panther?

 

[Banana Kid]

Michael Jai White is the only answer.

He's the bestest ever ever ever.

I see him as more of a Luke Cage. They should save him for that.

 

[Good Job Bob]

This guy also played The Punisher.

Let's not forget Chris Evans as Human Torch/Captain America.

Thing is neither FF and The Punisher exist in the MCU; Heimdall does.

 

[Tobor]

Thing is neither FF and The Punisher exist in the MCU. Heimdall does.

Not only that, he's already confirmed for Thor 2 in 2013.

 

[Parallax]

im all in bitches. reigun, where you at?

 

[Aske]

Meh. Not interested in the guy.

Read some of his stuff. He's impossible not to love.

 

[Nakazato]

YES day one.

 

[Big Baybee]

M J White is a great martial artist but lets face it, he is a terrible actor. Prefer him to not be cast in this.

 

[The Broken Ska Record]

Joseph Gordon Levitt as T'Challa.

Either way, can't wait to see it.

 

[The Anti-Monitor]

What? iron Man was pretty popular when I was a kid.

Really? He's always been fairly unknown. A lot of heroes are before they get their movie (such as Blade), they'll make sure everyone knows he's an Avenger.

Black Panther is a cool character and he can carry his own movie. He simply has a fairly unfortunate name.

 

[entremet]

M J White is a great martial artist but lets face it, he is a terrible actor. Prefer him to not be cast in this.

Someone didn't see Black Dynamite.

 

[Big Baybee]

Someone didn't see Black Dynamite.

I saw it and loved it. It was hilarious.

 

[PhoenixDark]

Idris Elba or Michael Jae White

I'd imagine the movie will bomb hard given the name+black male lead

 

[Slayven]

In this post-racist society I propose we rename him to just 'Panther'.

 

[Nakazato]

Idris Elba should be T'Challa.

Yes please

 

[The Anti-Monitor]

Idris Elba or Michael Jae White

No if they call it AVENGERS ASSEMBLE blackpanther

 

[ratcliffja]

That is awesome, awesome news. I also like Michael Jai White as a possibility, but I think they'll get a younger up and coming actor.

 

[Ignis Fatuus]

They'll cast Jamie Foxx.

 

[Good Job Bob]

Idris Elba or Michael Jae White

I'd imagine the movie will bomb hard given the name+black male lead

Extremely doubtful, Marvel Studios has the midas touch; people thought Thor and Captain America would bomb too—it'll probably make somewhere around those films. Maybe more now that audiences are sort of aware of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

 

[Ignis Fatuus]

I'd imagine the movie will bomb hard given the name+black male lead

If Blade could get two sequels there's no way this will bomb.

 

[Parallax]

i love the uniformity in that design.

They'll cast Jamie Foxx.

dont fuck around with horrible rumors.

 

[Discotheque]

The only way this film won't bomb is if they cast Will Smith in the lead.

 

[Slayven]

i love the uniformity in that design.

He was surprisingly stealthy. Guess it helps when your name is Kasper.

 

[powersurge]

Denzel gets my vote. Man on Fire badass.
