Are they just gonna... cast all the black actors and actresses of note?
Excluding Mackie amd Sam Jackson I guess, since they already exist elsewhere
>Black Panther will cast every young black actor in Hollywood
I'm totally fine with this. Go big or go home.
>>82920664
But, again, it's this mentality of "let's just hire black actors that the public is aware of". Why not take a chance on some newbies?
I assume Boyega having a contract with the Mouse put him in this part.
>>82920648
Pretty much, Hollywood only uses a handful of black actors over and over and now they have a new bunch to run into the ground. It's even worse for female black actors where there's even less. At this point it would surprise me if Isaach Bankole even popped up.
>>82920664
You mean go black.
>Very Very Black Panther : The Blackening
>>82920664
Are people like Boyega and Jordan gonna even be anyone of note?
Black Panther's supporting cast:
-2 Bodyguards (one already cast)
-Bitch sister
-(Step?) Mom
-Everett K. Ross
Who else is there? Are they gonna be bad guys? If so Jordan should be Killmonger, Boyega's big meaty head isn't scary looking
Watch them turn Hunter into a black dude without even a trace of irony.
I see the point of casting black actors in a movie set in Africa but still we're getting a baddie who happens to be a whitey and then another white dude. Is it necessary to have a 90% black cast when black americans are only 12.6% of the American population and countries such as Russia, the Eastern European Slav Squat and East Asia won't buy into it as they are intrinsically racist?
>>82920698
Could be that Vibranium kid who has the power of Vibration or whatever. No joke, real guy from the Fantastic Four. Was Queen Divine Justice's love interest in the Priest run.
>>82920719
The movie takes place in Africa, stupid.
is Heimdall gonna cameo?
>>82920687
What a dream.
>>82920692
Because there's like half a dozen young, black male actors who even qualify as names at this point.
>Chadwick Boseman(and he's a stretch because he's like 40)
>Michael B Jordan
>Boyega
>Shameik Moore
>Jaden Smith
They'll be plenty of room for newcomers.
>>82920735
I did acknowledge it, retard and besides there are still Spanish populations in the North of Africa, the entirety of North Africa being Moorish/Berbers and portions of the populations of SA and Zimbabwe who are white. But outside the US, is it that marketable?
>>82920764
Wakanda? Yes.
WE
>>82920719
That's why they're going after every major popular black actor from today, it'll make money domestically because it's a MCU film but the possibility that it could suffer really bad overseas is for sure there.
>>82920809
are the crystal gems!
>>82920821
At worst it does Thor 2.
>>82920870
I don't see it making 600 million like Thor 2
>>82920731
>kid who has the power of Vibration or whatever
Radical Larry confirmed?
>>82920896
I do. Especially after CW.
>>82920901
>MBJ
>bad
This is bait, right? Nobody seriously thinks he was bad in Creed, right?
>>82920943
Creed was great. Wished we'd get a Punch-Out styled movie series him tearing up the ranks to be World Champion.
>>82920896
You kidding me? BP was cool as fuck in CW and it wasn't even his movie. The guy is both charismatic and hot even without the aryan god Hemsworth factor, slap a Marvel brand on it and people will flock to it. Make it cool and distinct enough and people will remember it.
There's literally nothing else like it. Accept it or not, Black Panther is unique and has the possibility of being a big hit.And now even the japs like him because of the cat theme, if the fanarts posted around here are any indication
>>82920821
This!
Its literally dead on arrival in Japan, China and Russia... I bet they wont even bother releasing it in China.
>>82920949
>Zimbabwe isn't white,
Zimbabwe used to be called Rhodesia. It was pretty white.
>>82920764
the isolationist nation of wakanda...?
>>82921009
>Rest of the world really doesn't care that much about black people
Shocker!
>even in Africa, white people want to feel like they are undercast
Quick, who could Oscar Isaac and Daisy Ridley play in the MCU? Not Driver, he's hella ugly.
>>82921032
>Fantastic 4 flopped because
of Trank and a shitty script. The cast was fine.
>>82921032
Ow! That edge is really sharp!
>>82920698
Boyega can be Man Ape.
>>82921055
Yes, I know who Mugabe is. I also know a few white 'Zimbabweans' who stubbornly cling onto their citizenship.
>>82920719
>still we're getting a baddie who happens to be a whitey
The Torch guy's a villain
>countries such as Russia, the Eastern European Slav Squat and East Asia won't buy into it as they are intrinsically racist
Won't talk about the rest, but the Russian audience loved Black Panther. Not to mention that Will Smith and Eddie Murthy movies were always a hit in Russia.
>>82921081
Creed made bank. Like it or not, Michael B. Jordan is a star.
>>82921081
Uh, Along Came a Spider?
>>82921032
>and there is no way I was going to see a movie staring a nigger.
Are you seriously from 1955?
Is he the guy from Fan4stic or Star Wars? I didn't watch either and all black people look the same.
>>82921105
>Creed made bank.
Yea because it was a Rocky movie.
>>82921151
At least you admit it.
>>82921046
Oscar Issac is already Apocalypse in the new X-Men movie.
as for Daisy.....I'm not sure.
Why the fuck isn't Denzel in this yet?
>dr strange casting
>sjw:reeeeee why is ancient one a white woman and not a asian man reeeeee
>black panther casting
>sjw: kudos to marvel for hiring black people on movies! hollywood should learn from them!!!!11
did the mouse anticipated all of this?
based mouse doing it yet again
>Boyega
More like Ooga Booga, amirite?
>>82921196
Young Peggy Carter/Sharon's mum or something.
>>82920987
It'll sit somewhere between Ant-Man and GotG. It'll do well, $600-650m maybe, but there's no star power and China doesn't give a shit about black movies.
It shouldn't be too hard to pull off. Disney already has his check mailing address.
>>82920561
oh man I can't wait to see the future articles for this movie
>Taraji P. Henson in talks for Black Panther
>Michael Ealy in talks for Black Panther
>Black Panther and Hollywood's diversity problem
>>82921234
HE can be Man Ape.
>>82921234
Because they don't need him. Beside when I think Denzel and Disney I always think Remember the Titans. I love that movie so much that my mind would get confused if he were ever in another one.
>>82921247
I'm not an SJW and I agree that the casting for the Ancient One is idiotic.
I can't wait for the inevitable SJW pre-pumping of this film with claims of racism and insults about, "man-babies," and, "white oppressors."
>>82921317
Give it a rest. Fucking Hancock made over 600 million and that's over 200 million more than Superman returns. I think an MCU film with an already established character that was well received can do the same.
People are STILL trying to come up with reasons why "x Marvel movie will bomb"? Really?
Like come on son
>>82921400
So, you mean like Thor and Blade and Captain America?
>>82921400
>a super hero 0 people care about
Perhaps before Civil War came out. Everyone loves Black Panther now.
>>82921429
And they're trying to pull the black thing. With Boyega. Again! It's like /tv/ never learns.
>>82921400
Yeah I remember all those people who knew about Blade before his movie came out
>>82921429
"______ Marvel movie will bomb" is the new "________ will save the Wii U"
>>82921327
I saw that movie more than a dozen times in different classes while in high school.
Serious question, how much /tv/ is in this thread
>>82921502
Cap was the Aquaman of Marvel before his movie came out. And arguably was still underrated until TWS
>>82921460
It's funny since /tv/ just LOVES Finn now
>>82921502
Yeah, now! But don't bullshit me and act like people gave a fuck before his first movie.
>>82920943
good actor but he was awful in Creed (awful movie and awful director too).
>>82921523
In 1998. On a fairly small budget. With an R-rating. At a time where vampire movies and super hero movies were more or less dead. Perspective, it's important.
>>82921513
It's a good ass movie. There are worse things you could be forced to watch.
>>82921523
Yes. 18 years ago.
Cast me.
Black Panther or something MCU related
>>82921739
He could play God again.
>>82921739
Catering.
And if it succeeds they'll say 'Of course it did, it's a Marvel film! Take away the Marvel label and it would have bombed!''
>>82921782
Which is exactly why we should ignore them.

If anyone legitimately falls for this, I'll be very disappointed.
Good, I'm happy for him. I loved him in Attack the Block and Force Awakens and I'm looking forward to his movie with Emma Watson and Tom Hanks later this year. Between him and Ridley I'm really hoping he ends up the Harrison Ford of the new trilogy.
>>82921379
Hancock wasn't a black movie. Look at the cast list, aside from Will Smith it's a wall of white.
>>82922023
Why do movies have to be called "black" movies? Why is Friday a "black" movie but Billy Madison isn't a "white" movie?
>>82920561
>Guys they are making a movie about a black superhero that lives in an extremely insular, entirely black nation.
>Why are they casting so many black actors?
Look, the movie will probably flop anyway, I wouldn't worry about it /pol/
>>82920719
it's not that deep
it's an American production of a movie set in Africa.
Hollywood (which despite seeming like an island Disney is very much a part of) is incestuous and dominated by Americans and Brits
it's got nothing to do with the actual black US population, they're just gonna cast black people and aren't open to non-Americans/Brits
>>82920687
>mcu
>controlling the direction of cinema
capefags need to go
>>82922152
>If you are mad about it stop appropriating white culture
I really, really hope this movie sells REALLY well, and everyone is super pleased, because I cant take another age of SJW's and Critics complaining about how horrible movie goers and comic book fans are, and then we'll have #panthergate, and #ethicsincomics, and we'll never hear the end of it.
Just, please, God.
Let it be good, and make people see it, so we can just have a moment of peace.
The current hoopla about the female Ghostbuster movie was enough.I get it.
>>82922053
I've often thought about this.
Mayhaps it's because 'black' movies appeal to the 'urban' (see: Black in Hollywood stealth racism) demographics, but pretty much everyone enjoys vanilla esque crap like Billy Madison.They're generic comedies.
The game is rigged I guess. White's the default.
Fuck, I'm latino, and I dont even care. Most latino centric comedies are horrible.
>>82922193
Honestly, there's a big difference to me between BP and the Ghostbusters. BP, at least as far as films go, is an entirely new franchise that just happens to have a lot of minority actors. People who are against it's very existence at this point, before any trailers or it's even been filmed, are pretty much setting themselves up to be seen as bigots. But with Ghostbusters it's an old franchise that has a connection with people and has already had trailers. Sure SOME people hate it for a bigoted reason but alot of people hate it for a far more reasonable reason, because it;'s a reboot that is harming their beloved franchise.
>>82922173

>>82922523
Guess we'll see.
>>82922173
Oh yeah anon, all those things about the "x Cinematic Universe" are totally not based on anything from the success of the MCU, nope.
>>82921429
The logic behind this one has a lot more actual personal conviction behind it. Rocket's just silly, it won't make money. Ant-Man's just silly, it won't get a sequel. Black Panther's a fucking NIGGER! It CAN'T succeed! It's not ALLOWED to! Th-that's not the way my worldview works!
>>82922630
That movie was terrible anon. You might as well have put Catwoman there
>>82922523
>This is gonna be the new "GotG will bomb",
I thought that was Ant-Man
>>82922570
It's fine, he'll make big money on the next furious movie. Will he still do any movie for $10 million or has he upped his asking price? I wonder how much he got for Moana?
>>82922630
Blade came out the very next year after Steel and Meteor Man was never set up to be a hit. Nice try though.
I just love that were guaranteed a decade more of marvel films since they ALL have been going up and up in popularity. We won't see a "bomb" for years and even then it won't matter because MCU has like 6 safety blankets for that situation. This ain't like westerns that were only poplar for a few years because they couldn't tell the same boring cowboy story over and over before the population realized how shitty they wore, superhero movies can literally be any type of movie so we might never even see a end of marvel films period since they could always change it up! It's foolproof.
>>82921525
Ant-Man was the Aquaman of Marvel.
I'd equate Cap more with Shazam, or Wondy. Someone goofily-dressed but still very endearing.
>>82922630
>Comparing shitty movies from the late 90s to 2016 where Marvel is literally the toppest of dogs and making a movie of an established well-received character
We'll just pretend Blade didn't come out inbetween those then yeah?
>>82922668
>>82922683
Blade, like Hancock, is a movie with like two black people and everyone else is white.
>>82922695
So was Meteor Man
>>82921739

>>82922630
Fucking hell anon this is SERIOUSLY how far you have to reach? The core audience wasn't even fucking born yet.
>>82920687
>MCU movie
>Tanking
Such an event cannot occur until the end of Infinity wars
By then capekinos will get saturated
>>82922695
Someone didn't see Meteor Man. A better comparison would be Coming to America. Majority black cast. About African royalty. Huge hit
>>82922803
And it was a comedy!
Marvel's got it made!
>>82922803
That was the prime of eddie murphy though, he was a massive draw for quite some time. Really the problem is that there a few actors who can pull in hundreds of millions on namesake alone but that doesn't really matter when it comes to marvel movies since they rely on the characters popularity, as shown by Chris hemsworth being box office poison outside of the thor movies.
>>82922803
It was also rated R even though it didn’t need to be.
>>82922860
Yeah, you;re kind of right. It's one of Eddies more tamer early films. It's not like Beverly Hills Cop where the edge is needed and thus the
R-rating justified.
>>82922964
>Mercedes
Disgusting. Everyone knows that BMW is the superior German engineering.
>>82922988
Considering that's Axel Foley on the hood of said car, don't worry he doesn't own it, and thus it's not reflective of his taste in cars.
>>82920561
>>82922053
Because Hollywood is racist as fuck
Remember when Exodus came out and everyone on 4chan said it was okay for the actors to be white because it was smart for the studio since it would mean the movie would make money? Remember when it fucking bombed? Normal don't give a shit about the race of actors.
>>82923239
True, but also that movie was shit
>>82923296
Shit movies make tons of cash all the time, the point is that nobody says "This movie looks interesting but the main character is black which means I can't relate to him so I won't see it"
>>82920719
In other words you want white folks to be pandered to
>>82923239
And don't forget God's of Egypt. And the Lone Ranger. And the comedy remake of the film classic Guess Who's Coming to Dinner.
Okay, seriously, why does Hollywood raceswap all the goddamn time?
>>82922860
Didn't Coming to America have topless women?
>>82923327
Only "I" should be pandered to. Other types of people don't exist.
>>82923338
...They raceswapped Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?
Just... how?
>>82923296
haven't stoped movies from selling before.
>>82923383
It's called "Guess Who" and it has Ashton Kutcher as the main character and Zoe Saldana as his partner and Bernie Mac as her dad.
>>82920561
All the Wu-Tang members.
>>82923383
okey wait.. they used the same plot but it's not markeded as a remake it's called guess who instead of Guess Who's Coming to Dinner.
I still hate the movie but i can't attack it for what it's not.
>>82921893
I AM OFFENDED
>>82922053
White is default. Just how it is. Same reason why no non sjw will say something like "but why is the hero of the story white? Is there a reason he has to be"

>>82922630
Well of course steel failed. It's DC
>>82923599
I'm not the same person, I'm saying MCU films are pretty much guaranteed hits and black panthers success will be in how many people were wowed by him in civil war and want to see a film starring him.

>>82923338
Don't forget that black Honeymooners remake
>>82921575
God, this. I have no clue why people jerk off Creed so much, especially when compared to the good Rocky films.
Also, it's edited like a tv show. Coogler fits Marvel perfectly!
>>82922053
It is seen as a "white movie" (or more accurately, a Jewish comedy)
I'll be severely disappointed if Micheal Jai White isnt cast in this movie
>>82925184
He probably won't, he's a schlock master at this point and it doesn't look like anyone one the film has ties with him.

>This ain't like westerns that were only poplar for a few years
Westerns were literally popular from the silent era to the 1960s, you have zero clue what you're talking about
Jesus, /co/ really is the Swedish board.
>>82920664
Man, I'm all for it, but it's got me worried about one thing.
Beyond T'Challa, most of the characters in the movie will just be supporting cast at best, and with how few black actors and actresses are in hollywood, putting pretty much every non-a-list black actor or actress in this movie really limits how many black leading or major supporting rolls the rest of the Marvel movies can have. It's cool seeing Michael B. Jordan or Boyega in the movie, but if they're just one-off characters that only appear in a scene or two with limited lines then it's kind of a waste of their talents.
I'd rather see MBJ play Night Thrasher in a New Warriors movie than some random Hatut Zeraze goon or whatever role he's playing in BP.
Although I guess the very nature of doing a movie set in Wakanda necessitates filling it with all the notable black actors/actresses in Hollywood.
>>82920719
>we're getting a baddie who happens to be a whitey and then another white dude
We don't know who the main antagonist is. Klaw being in the movie is a sure bet, but the main antagonist could easily be M'Baku or Killmonger.
>>82925052
Or the black Annnie remake
Way to go Boyega. I've been rooting for him since he told those kids to "Stay in the block!" way back when.
>>82926654
RDJ was a washed up brat pack actor who was only talked about when he was the butt of a joke about alcoholics.
Evans and Hemsworth were literally whos because they played Cap and Thor.
