i'd consider paying money at a movie theater if they properly casted him as luke cage. he could be younger, but it works very well
Bryan Danielson
Jmare007 x Bryan Danielson x JLova = King Ghidorah
I hear you homey.... but if its true that they about to cast homey from The Wire as Johnny Flame in F4 remake.... then we black people have no solid argument to stand by, cuz even WE know thats wrong.
Why bring that up?? Cuz the moment this discussion gets bigger thats the 1st response some other white guy is gonna throw out there.... I mean cac's is still mad at Idris Elba's character in Thor

"Villains For Hire".
Throw in Misty Knight, Paladin, Iron Fist,
"Villains For Hire".

I could see this....
People brought this up years ago and I just wasn't seeing it but ever since Rock put on weight and shaved his head I've been able to see it more and more.
Rock gonna have to can that nice guy shyt though and bring back that Miami U swag to pull off cage.

this forums strange obsession with michael jai white is just comical,everyone on this forum suggests him for seemingl every black role.
for one,hes a shytty actor,and secondly hes a glorified straight to dvd actor and him in any starring role as a draw will flop horrendously,like everything else hes in.

It's not just this forum.
Look anywhere that there's a casting thread for a Black Superhero and you'll see his name and Idris Elba's.
Luke Cage
Black Panther
Blade
Green Lantern
Bishop
War Machine
I've seen people say Michael Jai White and Idris Elba should play those characters
Scottie Drippin
Should Never Mention Me
To be fair, Idris Elba is the best black actor there is right now. He would kill as John Stewart or T'Challa. Absolutely kill.

Yuh Idris as T'Challah would be so dope

FF is on Fox though and has no bearing on the cinematic shared Marvel Universe, which has so far been head and shoulders above the non-disney owned properties. Look what Fox did with the LAST FF franchise they had on their hands, they fukked up everything EXCEPT for Chris Evans as Johnny.
The shared Marvel Universe has extremely good momentum and buzz right now, if their going to give their Black superheros shine then they need to do it with the same respect for the source characters as they did their white counterparts. Luke Cage is 100% unequivocally BLACK and should be played by an African American actor PERIOD
He writes scripts? Picks and chooses? Like he's Will Smith in the game
....the Rock doesn't own the companies he does movies for. Sound like you have a psychological problem with how he looks and how his movies does numbers in these non pro Black roles. If he was a joke and a half name like those goofballs posted in this thread. .it wouldn't even be an issue. Some real backward personalities are on this Net shyt..the I hate Black women club in that locker room forum and wack shyt like this exists while propping Drake for being a homo, propping Chris Brown for beating women....stupid.
Idris ain't fit enough for that role
