Lupita Nyong'o Wants Idris Elba in Black Panther 3
Lupita Nyong'o is already looking ahead at a third
Black Panther movie.
And should
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever get a follow-up film, the Oscar winner knows exactly who should join the star-studded cast—which already includes Letitia Wright,
Angela Bassett and
Danai Gurira.
As Lupita exclusively told
Francesca Amiker on the Nov. 14 episode of
E! News the one person she had in mind: "
Idris Elba." As for why she picked the Hollywood hunk? "Why not?" she added, "Idris should be in everything."
The
Luther star is no stranger to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), however, appearing in several films across the franchise as Thor's (
Chris Hemsworth) friend and protector of the Bifröst, Heimdall, most recently respiring the role for a post-credits cameo in
Thor: Love and Thunder.
Should Idris make the jump from Valhalla to Wakanda, he wouldn't be the first person to appear as two different characters in the MCU. Before she starred as Sersi in
Eternals,
Gemma Chan made her MCU debut as the Captain Marvel villain Minerva.
Michelle Yeoh also made a brief appearance in
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 before appearing as Ying Nan in
Shan-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever star Lupita Nyong'o revealed her pick for which actor she'd want to join the cast for a third movie exclusively on E! News. Watch.
