The Cast Of BLACK PANTHER Weighs In On The Facebook Group Hoping To Sabotage The Movie's Audience Score

A couple of weeks ago, Facebook was forced to close down an alt-right page dedicated to sabotaging Black Panther's Audience Score on Rotten Tomatoes. Now, the cast of the movie has weighed in on that.

As you no doubt already know, an alt-right Facebook page was recently created by a group of DC fans with the intention of sabotaging Black Panther's Audience Score on Rotten Tomatoes and spoiling the movie for those planning on seeing it. That was ultimately removed by the social media giant but if you think the cast cares about the haters, then you may want to think again as they really don't care! 

"Everybody is just focused forward. Those people are at the back," explains Letitia Wright, who plays Shuri in the Marvel movie. Chadwick Boseman adds: "I definitely thought about it, and I think you don’t really know how big of an impact that’s going to be. So whatever they do online doesn’t really matter." Both of them make a valid point here and it's good to hear it's not getting them down.

Black Panther has been a hit with critics, while the signs are all pointing to the movie being a box office smash. Check out the video for more comments and let us know your thoughts in the usual place.

@NOVAtheSUPA - I think this is the first CBM featuring a black lead (and black director) that is embracing a 'black' cultural narrative that is setting it apart from the likes of Blade (and I agree, Snipes was the one who started it all for real).

Similar to Wonder Woman, there were female-led CBM's before it, but Wonder Woman embraced a 'female' cultural narrative directed by a female voice unlike those films before it.

@NOVAtheSUPA - Blade may have been based on a comic book but it definitely isn't a super hero movie. And they were successful, but definitely not a blockbuster.
