Why are you guys discounting Idris Elba just because he was heimdall in thor? You guys know Chris Evans was Johnny Storm in the Fantastic Four movies right? He's captain america now.

A movie like Black Panther needs a widely known name to put asses in seats. Idris Elba is a young enough, well known and a good enough actor to do it. Whether or not he looks muscular or not is irrelevant. Look at Chris Evans. Dude wasn't really looking that tough and then he got brolic as hell for Captain America.

The problem with getting the movie made will be the fact that there will have to be some white heroes in there even if it makes no sense for them to be there. White people won't see a movie if it doesn't have some white faces in there unless we're talking black comedies like those Tyler Perry joints. So they'll probably stick Captain America or Iron Man in there.

It'll be interesting to see how they pull this one off. I heard they are going to develop an Ant-Man movie as well. Is there any validity to that?

Tyler Perry as the blackpanther. Backhanding and limp wristing his way to justice.

Djimon Honsou is perfect for this role. He already killed it as the voice of the character in the animated series.

If RDJ's old ass can play Tony Stark then Djimon can play T'Challa.

That would be dope. Hopefully Black Panther is in Avengers 2.

Idris would've been perfect...but instead he's bytch ass heimdall...

:wtf:

"bytch ass Heimdall"? He's a god, and one of the more important characters in "Thor".
