Who will he play, any theories?
How things have been going? Steve Rogers.

Not big enough for Man-Ape. Not imposing enough for Killmonger. Not crazy enough for Achabe.
So I'm guessing just some Wakandan major supporting character. One of T'Challa's advisors or the leader/member of the Hatut Zeraze.

I'm one for Black Panther having a rival.

>Not imposing enough for Killmonger
He could play a good Killmonger.
It'll also be a breath of fresh air having the Marvel villain not just be an evil version of the MC. Outside of IM 3 of course

>Not imposing enough for Killmonger
Killmonger doesn't need to be more imposing than Panther. Bane was shorter than Batman in DKR.
What other major roles do they need to cast?
We know they're going to have Ross and they'll probably have Ramonda and Shuri. W'Kabi isn't major enough to merit MBJ. Hunter needs to be white.
Killmonger makes the most sense.

Killmonger is just the evil version of Black Panther, they have all the same powers.
Seems like playing the human torch in film is a surefire way to being accepted into the MCU

Random soldier 13
Sacrifices himself to save the panther appears again as a spirit near the end
>>82740755
Killmonger is only human. Black Panther is superhuman and killed his ass.
>>82740940
Killmonger ate the same heart-shaped herb T'Challa did tho
>>82740351
A villain called The Flame that is trying to burn Wakanda down. Black Panther beats the crap out of him and sets him on fire. Ends with him jumping off a cliff, on fire, screaming.
>>82740693
He's played Apollo Creed's son, so he could probably pull off the "charismatic and imposing" part, and camera angles could give him the extra height.
Think they'll use any of Killmonger's agents from Panther's Rage, like Venomm and King Cadaver?
Zero percent chance he'll be Reverend Doctor Michael ibn al-Hajj Achebe.

Hehehe, I thought nobody liked to talk about black-on-black violence

>or the leader/member of the Hatut Zeraze.
I can see them making Hunter black, but Hunter should be older than T'Challa at least, if not a white man.
