BLACK PANTHER CASTING CALL

>REVEREND ACHEBE – A poor farmer somewhere in South Africa, Achebe sold his soul to the demon Mephisto. He is portrayed as a grinning, unpredictable, lunatic, warrior-mystic, regularly talking to his hand-puppet Daki with delusions that it’s truly alive, and engineering complex plots of social unrest for profit or entertainment.
>ERIK KILLMONGER – A powerful warrior and strategic genius in politics and economics.
>MALICE – Wakandan Mutate with superhuman strength, speed, and agility. She is a former Dora Milaje (ceremonial betrothed/bodyguard) of T’Challa.
>MAN-APE – Ruler of the Jabari Tribe a recognized micronation within Wakanda’s borders. M’Baku was Wakanda’s greatest warrior second only to the Black Panther. He plotted to usurp the throne with the help of the outlawed White Gorilla cult who were ancient rivals of the Black Panther cult, which basically made them heretics since Panther worship is the state religion. Founding member of the “Pan African Congress on the Treatment of Superhumans”.
>WHITE WOLF – T’Challa’s adopted elder brother and the former leader of the Hatut Zeraze, the espionage elite police of Wakanda. Exiled by T’Challa, due to using torture and assassinations in his zeal to root out potential threats to national security.

> N’GASSI – Adviser to T’Challa, acting regent when he goes away on missions.
>OKOYE – One of the former Dora Milaje, a ceremonial betrothed/bodyguard of T’Challa. Okoye is of the J’Kuwali tribe and acted as a traditional, proper concomitant to the king, speaking only to the king and only in Hausa, an African dialect not widely spoken in Wakanda and thus affording the king and his wives a measure of privacy.
>QUEEN DIVINE JUSTICE – The street-smart queen of the Jabari tribe of Wakanda raised in Chicago, and former Dora Milaje (ceremonial betrothed/bodyguard) of T’Challa. She originally went by the name Chanté Giovanni Brown.
>W’KABI – T’Challa’s competent second-in-command, completely loyal to his liege.
>ZURI – A grumpy and gigantic elderly warrior. A close friend of the late T’Chaka, and one of T’Challa’s most trusted advisers.

Does this mean we get Mephisto in the MCU? Strange don't fail me.

>Man-Ape

They're actually doing it? The absolute Madmen.

Ever since ANTS, I feel like the MCU is just going whole hog comic book.

It's a good feel.

I can dig it

Michael B Jordon for Achebe.

This sounds too good to be true.

>>Does this mean we get Mephisto in the MCU?
>MCU OMD doesn't erase peter's marriage but reboots the universe

>MAN-APE
Sounds like a bad idea

Oh shit Mephisto is in the MCU?

I always thought they'd replace him with Loki in IW.

>One big reveal: John Boyega (Star Wars: The Force Awakens) has been cast in the movie, according to the full casting call at Movie Casting Call, which was something that we’d heard both rumors and denials about last week. The casting call also confirms Lupita Nyong’o and Michael B. Jordan have been cast, and it confirms the return of Ulysses Klaw (Andy Serkis) and Everett K. Ross (Martin Freeman).

Better casting that Killmonger. It would be awful if Scrawny B Jordan was cast as 7 foot tall, African He-Man

Man-Ape?
Klaw?
Reverened Achebe?
White Wolf?

jesus christ, slow the fuck down, Black Panther.

>Five villains

I don't know about that.

Some of them could be small roles or cameos. TWS also had a lot of antagonists.

I wish I could act, was fit and wasn't ugly or I'd definitely trt

Didn't The Flash resurrect like 15 C-list villains?

> One big reveal: John Boyega (Star Wars: The Force Awakens) has been cast in the movie, according to the full casting call
So this thread is trash then...

The real villain will be Killmonger

>Peter accidentally Flashpoints the whole damn universe to save MJ or something

For some reason, I hope people like him as much as they liked Loki.

>the new universe add the x-men

I wish I didn't live so far away. Would totally go.

Someone searched up black panther on wiki to make this

That's what it was said for Michael Keaton too, but seems like he's been cast in Spider-Man after all.

comicbookmovie.com/spider-man/jon-watts-confirms-michael-keaton-in-spider-man-homecoming-vincent-a141927

that's a lot of villains

AM I THE ONLY ONE FUCKING HYPED FOR THIS?

Holy shit, are they just doing a Wakandan Sinister Six movie or something?

WE

ARE

Holy shit.
They're going full Chris Priest with this?
Holy fucking shit the lunatics.

KANGZ

They should get Tom Hanks to play Black Panther.

>So many villains
Hold the phone
Are they all gonna gang up on Black Panther?
Damn I see BP get hunted in jungle only for BP to turn the tables, and make the hunter the hunted

There's more
>moviecastingcall.org/2016/05/marvel-studios-casting-call-information-black-panther.html

• ULYSSES KLAW (played by Andy Serkis) – Murderer and betrayer of T’Chaka and personal archenemy of T’Challa. A powerhouse with near-absolute control of sound.
• MONICA LYNNE – A singer who saved T’Challa from drowning after being bested by Killmonger. His longest love interest, whom he pledged eternal devotion towards.

• EVERETT K. ROSS – A United States State Department employee, whose job was to escort foreign diplomats on American soil. His world changed forever when he was assigned to T’Challa, the Black Panther, the ruler of Wakanda.

I am now more skeptical than before. Klaw and Ross' descriptions sound like they're taken directly from the comics and they don't really gel with what we've seen of them in the movies. Monica's description is also suspiciously too close to the comics.
These "casting calls" just sound like somebody took every major character from Christopher Priest's run's wikipedia entry.

>Wakandan Mutate
Hold it. No. Fuck off

>Murderer and betrayer of T’Chaka
Welp, I guess that confirms they're fake

>Murderer and betrayer of T’Chaka

They didn't even fucking try.

But T'Chaka was killed by Zemo posing as Bucky in the MCU, so I'm calling bullshit on that one.

>Murderer and betrayer of T’Chaka
Wait did they imply he murdered him or he is a murderer in general?

Exactly. This proves not only that the leak is fake, but that whoever faked it didn't put any effort in sounding convincing.
It was already quite suspicious that there were so many villains and Priest run characters.

>Murderer and betrayer of T’Chaka

little a copy and paste of a wiki list of Black panther characters

*literally

Last time I checked, Klaw (I'm pretty sure it's actually spelled Klaue or something) didn't Jill T'Chaka. I'm also pretty sure complete control of sound would have come in handy when Ultron fucked up his base, ripped off his arm, and let the Avengers fuck up his whole base.

They weren't even trying.

>The Halo Encyclopedia has entire sections lifted from Halopedia and accidentally canonized several of their errors
I swear to god, Wikis need to start suing or something

>so which Black Panther villain should we use for the movie?
>ALL OF THEM
Jesus.

Someone just put together a wiki list of all the characters.

It's fake, they didn't even bother changing Klaw's characer profile to fit the fact that he didn't kill T'Chaka in the MCU

Nothing the wikis do belongs to them. If anything, if a company was butthurt and stupid enough they could actually sue the wikis.

Sounds cool, IF this is actually true. A lot of hard names, though (which isn't anyone's fault of course, since it's a different place and culture), so hopefully it won't be too hard to keep track on who's who again.

Can't wait to see more about this movie.

Let me explain how the casting call process works: the production company tells them the names of the characters they need to cast, the talent agency puts out a call for these characters. The descriptions can either be given to them by the company (Marvel) or just sourced on their own (Wiki). The descriptions don't ever match what the adaptation is in the movie because 1) that would be giving away the plot and 2) everything is always in flux so nothing would be nailed down at this point. So these casting calls are likely true in the sense that the characters are being cast, but if they use them or how they adapt them for the movie is up in the air. I am never surprised that wiki/marvel entries are used on these as they're just trying to give the actors/agents an idea of what they are auditioning for/how to prep.

>These names are too hard to remember and sound like black people names. Why can't they have white names like Tom or Amy, so that white American moviegoers can remember their names? After all, when you hear a name like Brian, you just know the character has a white. Western, Christian identity that is what we should all aspire to and identify with from the start

Sounds like bs

>A lot of hard names, though (which isn't anyone's fault of course, since it's a different place and culture), so hopefully it won't be too hard to keep track on who's who again.

I felt this way during The Hobbit and LoTR movies. So me and my friend's just re-named the characters as we were watching. It was easier to remember than everyone's name having "mir" and "gon"

To be fair, Kilmonger's name is Eric.

Four villains? Sounds fake

>very few people call him Erik!

The ferocious five?

>no white tiger
oh

This is bullshit. There are way too many characters with different agendas to fit into one film. It just reads that someone put all of Priest's characters in there.

I mean, Queen Divine is a big red flag of fake

God I love Achebe.

He is like the Joker for entire Countries.

A serial killer of nations.

>We're getting Achebe, Mephisto, Killmonger, Malice, Man-Ape, White Wolf and Klaw in one movie
Well, this could get complicated.

>Literally just the Priest Run

THANK YOU BASED COOGLER

>AskVector Prime

Thanks, mah nig.

Can't believe they are doing Man-Ape

>>REVEREND ACHEBE – A poor farmer somewhere in South Africa, Achebe sold his soul to the demon Mephisto. He is portrayed as a grinning, unpredictable, lunatic, warrior-mystic, regularly talking to his hand-puppet Daki with delusions that it’s truly alive, and engineering complex plots of social unrest for profit or entertainment.
Holy shit they're doing it.

Why

Read the thread, this is obviously fake

So, probably no Mephisto after all..

Hype killed.

>casting every fucking Black Panther villain in one movie
I'm not sure if this makes me more or less hype.
Fuck man I always imagined they'd save Killmonger for a sequel and White Wolf for a threequel.
On the off-chance this turns out to be legit it'd be a pretty fucking definitive Black Panther movie but at the expense of all of these characters getting room to breathe. Plus it'd make Marvel look like they have no faith in the source material long-term, since all it'd leave for a potential BP 2 & 3 is crossover bullshit.

Why is Ross being casted when he's already played by Freeman?

IT IS FAKE! READ THE THREAD!

That's just further proof that it's fake

Not according to . :^)

Holy shit, I was sure they are going to play this as safe as possible but it seems like they are going all out!

So do you think they are gonna go with the a black White Wolf or a white White Wolf?

I think it would be hilarious if they go with a white and mae him Panther's sidekick like Sam and Rhodes. Then every big player in MCU will have a race token sidekick

Too bad it's fake, White Wolf would have been cool to have.

Hopefully a white guy White Wolf because it would just be hilarious although if it's a black dude they can drive the point of Wakandans not liking foreigners regardless of race just because they are not Wakandan.

> Queen Divine Justice
> Killmonger

He probably just asked some Sup Forums nerd which run is the best and then went with the first ark

Which is honestly not the worst thing to do

Fake as shit, son. The guy just posts a bunch of bullshit. Did the same with previous movies.

Holy shit, Sup Forums, all of that is literally copypasted from wikipedia.

There's no way this is real. They're not gonna commit to cast so many big players for future movies when they don't need to. And...man ape.
Listen I love how fuck it mcu has gotten about doing some absolutely bandanas shit.
We ain't getting man ape. It isn't happening. Just realize this now and understand if they ever did that character the director would have his house burned down.
