I'd bitch about putting some info on this... but... we just know it exists and who it stars. Uh. Any flicks one could recommend that has Boseman? I don't think I know him. He was in 42 and that James Brown flick. Were they any good?

That costume looks great and sleek. I could see the Black Panther becoming very popular.

A big deal black superhero. Marvel is throwing the goddamn gauntlet, AGAIN, with all these new announcements. I would hate to be at WB today.

I actually dig the outfit, but I think the mask has a very Batman Beyond-ish look to it. Not a bad thing but that's what I noticed.

You can see him in Black Panther in 2017.

I LOVE this character. He has such a unique background in comparison to all the rest coming out. Cuz we don't see Africa like this at all. I'm excited!

42 was not very good. I'm surprised that he's the choice for this, but we'll see what happens.

Looking forward to this and Guardians of the Galaxy 2.

He will make his first appearance in Cap 3.

Is he a solid actor? His work doesn't seem all that good but maybe he was?

Confirmed? Or are you making a prediction?

Confirmed....just posted something in Cap 3 per Marvel website.

He himself was good. It just seems weird that he's Jackie Robinson and James Brown within the span of one year, but good for him for getting these roles, even if they didn't hit big.

what is the villain/threat? Ebola?

He was awesome in "Get On Up" and "42". I think you meant Han Solo was not very good in "42".

Deadline says he's signed for five films. (why not six?) I don't really know anything about the character, so hopefully the standalone film has some origin story to it (since we'll apparently see him in Cap3 first).

Klaw?

There are rumors that Serkis is Klaw in AoU. Whoever he is playing does look like Ulysses Klaw.

That's the baddie I always think of when it comes to Panther. Mostly cuz of the Vibranium.

Read my next post. I said the movie wasn't good, but he was. Though I will agree that the Futurama Richard Nixon impression that Ford put forth wasn't that great either.

I kind of wanted to see 42 cuz I like Jackie Robinson's story.

Ford was laughably bad, IMO, but Boseman was easily the best part (and not the reason the movie pretty much blew).

I had a discussion with someone at work today who saw the James Brown movie and she agreed that although the movie wasn't any good, he was great in the role. So he can act, he just hasn't been in anything decent.

At least his talent shines. That's good for him.

Also he was in Draft Day, but I don't remember him in it. A lot of people in that, including Tom Welling.

I was just looking to type "Han Solo".

Even though I like this casting, I think an actual African actor or at least an actor from the UK would have been cool so I wont have to hear a fake African accent.
