Not too worried about the plan going forward but I'm hopeful the Marvel Studios brain trust will do their best. Let's just wait and see.

I forgot about Trevante.

DC been circling him for like 3 years with the John Stewart role... but fukk all that, if Marvel can snag him for BP that'd be a great look.

I bring up Denzel's son mainly bc Marvel has gone with some acclaimed actors/actresses for their 3 non-white male leads (Chad, Brie, Mahershala), so I figure Tenet would be the icing on the cake for JDW if he's stellar in it. The recency-bias edge.
Yeah denzel son is a bet

Trevante is listed at 6'0

So he's Chadwick's height + 13 years younger.

If he can grow the beard + fro and give an accent... he might be the best available combination of all spectrums.

He's known from moonlight and bird box, he's got the look and physicality.. but what do yall say about his acting chops?

I actually think he's a better actor than Mike B Jordan

I think they should write off T’Challa honestly. Sucks because he sucha a huge role model but, I don’t think anyone else would be as good as Chad.


I was really looking forward to Panther vs Doom

I disagree..personally I think they need a new director and new fight choreographer.

I think Russo bros could do better than coogler

I mean there are good arguments for both sides of the coin. We’ve seen actors take up the mantle of others before and it work super well, but its too soon IMO.

He IS Black Panther. The same way Christopher Reeves was thee Superman. Those roles will always belong to the two of them respectfully. They owned those roles. Maybe once they reset the universe they can recast.

Dani Gurira is my pick if the mantle is passed to a woman. I don't know about star power like Lupita, but she stole every scene she was in in the first movie and her action scenes look believable. And dope. You actually believe she'd kick people's. asses

i hate to even think it but, I think a group approach is best to honor BP, all of them can take a stab like Batman Inc or something...including introducing Casper Cole :ld:

Not opposed to JDW since he has the acting chops but he seems too short for the role. Are you telling me they didn’t film any scenes with Chadwick for BP2?

I think there will be no new T'Challa, it will be a NEW BLACK PANTHER. And like many have stated, there are a lot of good choices. They could even break a semi-unknown actor if they want.

But if you look at black actors on the rise, I think they'll choose from JDW, Yahya (but I think DC would block this, or he would be the number 1 choice), Daniel Kaluuya (he already is in the BP universe and can do a redemption arc), Aldis Hodge, Trevante Rhodes, and Damson Idris (he's a strong darkhorse) as he's a great actor, young, and is gonna be a star.

Chad wouldn't want this franchise held up just because of his health. Im sure he had discussions with Feige and Coogler just in case the worst came to pass. This character means too much just to retire. If there can be multiple Supermans, Batmans, and Jokers, there can be more BPs.

In the event that they choose to recast, I would suggest
  • Aldis Hodge
  • Y'Lan Noel
  • Or an unknown actor


THIS.


He took great pride in being the first and bringing this movie to the world.

He saw how HAPPY & PROUD it made people feel.

Like you literally see it in that post I posted when he was on Jimmy Fallon

He would want this to continue on to inspire the masses and youth
