Fan Cast: Live Action Black Panther Movie

Fan Cast: Live Action Black Panther Movie

Since Marvel is pushing out super hero movies left and right, i think its time the King of Wakanda himself took his rightful place with the best of them

My fan cast might be a little out there to some of you but i think some fresh faces need to be given the opportunity. So no, you will not be seeing Chiwetel Ejiofor, Idris Elba, or Terry Crews in this fan cast. Here are my picks for some of the main characters.

T'Chaka - Djimon Hounsou
My pick to play Panther daddy is Djimon Hounsou. I know he is a fan favorite to play the lead role in a BP movie but i honestly feel that his time has passed. If Marvel had been serious about making a BP movie years ago, my first choice would have been Djimon. Honestly i think folks just keep going back to him because he is like the de facto guy to play any role that requires a black man with an accent.




Ramonda - Gina Torres
She is no stranger to the sci-fi/fantasy world (Xena, Firefly, Flash Forward) and she also happens to be a terrific and under rated actress. She would be my choice to play step-mother to T'Challa.




T'Challa - Aldis Hodge
He has been flying under the radar unless you happen to be an avid watcher of Leverage where he plays the role of "Hacker". He has also starred in Super Natural, Bones, Castle, The Game and other tv shows/movies. Aldis would be an ideal candidate to carry on as The Black Panther.





Ororo Munroe - Tika Sumpter
Another fresh face who i think would be the perfect Storm. Halle Berry has proven beyond a doubt that popular casting can sometimes prove to be the wrong casting (See also: Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan). Tika started off on the soap circuit but has transitioned to primetime TV shows including The Game and Gossip Girl.





Ulysses Klaw - Vincent Cassel
Vincent happens to be another under-rated actor. You can always count on him to deliver in whatever role he is playing. I think he would be the perfect choice to play the physicist turned solid sound.



Again, i should reiterate that these are my choices so try not to foam at the mouth in the comments section. :)

@Selina Kyle

thats a good castings but if they did a live action Black Panther movie most likely Storm wont be in the movie since FOX Studio own the rights to the character.

Black Panther love interest in the movie should be Monica Lynne.

I like Aldis Hodge, him and Edi Gathegi are my top choices for BP. the rest are good.

Excellent and original casting...i too felt that Djimon would be better as T'Chaka, but your other choices are simply brilliant (Aldis, good find) and prone for multiple movies as well...the best suggestion so far...good job

Dang. This is an excellent cast for BP. If they make the movie I hope they choose the people you have chosen.

It is indeed an excellent cast, and i could easily see this guy play black panther. I don't like much the storm you picked out though. She looks too small.

This was incredibly good, actually. I also can't help but note that Ororo can't be the love interest, though Monica Lynne is hardly the type of heroine we're looking for. I'd much rather bring in Nakia or Okoye and base the storyline in Wakanda rather than try and cover his origin and American storyline all in one swoop.

If they ratchet up the epic they can make it a globetrotting thing because of his kingness, I guess, but BP's origin is already busy as it is...

Just excellent. I really think BP should go young ala Thor instead of mid-aged ala Iron Man.

YAY! Thanks for the feedback guys. And yeah, i do get we cant have storm in the movie but ideally, this would be the line up of characters i would want to see in a BP movie. :)
