Bleeding Cool has spotted the following Tweet from Morris Chesnut, and it MIGHT just be an indication that he's in the running to play Black Panther! Marvel Studios has been trying to put together a movie featuring the character for a long time now (it was reported last year that they were hoping to make T'Challa part of "Phase 2" in 2014), so it's not exactly hard to imagine that we'll see him featured in The Avengers sequel. Is the Kick-Ass 2 actor reading up on the character because Marvel Studios have approached him about the role? It's certainly a possibility, while the fact he posted a link to a Black Panther comic book featuring him alongside Earth's Mightiest Heroes is very intriguing indeed. On the other hand, it could just be that someone told him to check out a few books featuring the King of Wakanda! What do you guys think about this?
