top candidates to play "storm" in black panther 2 MCU

[Bleed The Freak]

Chadwick Boseman is 41 breh

also Storm ain't a teenager in the comic books, she's a grown woman.

You know damn well a 41 year old dude can play as Black Panther in that role but they aint casting a 41 year old Storm. That is not how Hollywood works.

She plays along side him there will be a 10-15 year age gap.

I guarantee the casting call will call for 25-35.

Women breh....

Name a 40+ old woman actress in the MCU....Renee Russo played Thor mom and she was damn 25 years younger than Anthony Hopkins.

Do you not know there is ageism with women....ESPECIALLY black women...in Hollywood.

They don't cast women the same age as James Bond.

There will not be a 40+ year old Storm cast in the MCU with a 5-6 movie deal...period.

a lot of yall cats are on that tyler perry, BET movie of the week level when it comes to analyzing acting talent

teyana taylor? keke palmer? Marvel ain't about to waste production time on their non acting asses

they'll get naomi harris or Kerry washington - I could see any one of them as storm easily

You can definitely tell the difference between discussing a topic like this in TLR vs. The Film Room.

41.

45.

But I just remembered, they've re-booted Xmen and they've got a new storm anyway right?

Storm is supposed to be about 6ft tall and athletic yet ya’ll are picking 5’3 people to play her.

This is one reason why Halle Berry was such a terrible choice.

 

[King]

Storm has no business being in black panther

Same thing I was saying. Even though I loved her character, Nakia being there fukks up the chances of having T'Challa and Storm get together, unless Nakia magically gets storm-like abilities from some Wakandan magical shyt.

A lot of times they bypass the height. Wolverine is 5'3 in the comics but he's portrayed by Hugh Jackman who's 6'2.

 

[richaveli83]

Teyonah Parris is my pick for Storm.

Danaii role is not Storm. It won't happen.

We'll agree to disagree- I personally don't see Storm being cast as 40 years old. I really wouldn't care long as the movie is good but it's not happening.

But Shipp is atrocious and needs to

Halle was terrible cause she did her best Kevin Costner attempt with that African accent in the 1st and then said "fukk it" for the other 2 or 3 flicks.

And Singer outside of X2 and DOFP made some mediocre shyt.

 

[Orbital-Fetus]

Lil Kim's name has been tossed around for Storm.
i think that could re-boot her career.

 

[Luke Cage]

At this entire thread. The suggestions in here.
Storm first and foremost must played by an amazing actress, she pretty much an African goddess not black Gwen Stacey. Getting someone cute won’t work. You probably need an African actress with a commanding voice.

 

[Mook]

Why not? At one point she was married to BP in the comic

And it was a dumb move that they'd tried to retcon almost immediately. shyt was trash.

Also marvel doesn't own the rights to storm.

 

[Roid Jones]

Meh I see no reason to have Storm in BP2
