My new movie fancast of T'CHALLA, The King of Wakanda...
BLACK PANTHER!
T'CHALLA'S birth killed his mother, N'YAMI, and his older brother,
HUNTER, blamed him for her death. His second mother, ROMANDA, left the family
when T'Challa was only eight, and when he was in his pre-teens, his father,
T'CHAKA was murdered by ULYSSES KLAW over the rare metal
VIBRANIUM that comes from Wakanda. Klaw was later driven away after
then 11-year-old T'CHALLA destroyed KLAW'S left hand with his own
destructive VIBRANIUM-based sonic device, almost killing him. ROMANDA
was later eventually returned to WAKANDA with the help of T'CHALLA.
T'Challa being the son of T'Chaka put him in line to be the next King of
Wakanda and Black Panther, but young super genius T'Challa knew he was not yet
ready to become the leader of the nation. But he felt his childhood ended the
day his father died and that it was time to start to act as a King would. So
S'YAN, T'Chaka's younger brother & T'Challa's uncle, took the Bast/Panther
trials, passed and became the Black Panther.
During his youth, T'Challa while on his Wakandan Walkabout/Rite of passage met
and fell in love with apparent orphaned teen named, ORORO MUNROE, and later
known as a member of the X-Men, Storm. The two broke off there relationship due
to his need to avenge his father’s death & to become the type man who could
lead the nation of Wakanda, but they would see each other over the years when
they could. After studying in his home country, the advanced nation of
Wakanda, a young T'Challa traveled to other parts of Africa, , Europe and to
study and train. He returned home once he'd learned all that he could and was
ready to lead the country.
At 19 years old, T'Challa, wearing a mask, challenged the then Black Panther &
King (his uncle S'yan) and and beat him in fair combat. After that T'Challa was
required to take the rest of the Bast/Panther trails such as defeating the
various champions of the 18 Wakandan tribes. Finally after being judged & found
worthy by the Panther God, Bast, next the Heart Shaped Herb/Heart of Wakanda
was applied to his body and ingested by him (the process would kill any person
who was unworthy or not a member of the royal line) and that process also
linked him to Bast. The competition of the Panther trials made him a superhuman
granting him enhanced speed, agility, strength, endurance, healing, memory and
senses (sight / vision, hearing, smell, etc).
As one of the first acts as King he threw the WAKANDAN secret police,
the HATUT ZERAZE and their leader and T'CHALLA'S brother, HUNTER, otherwise
known as WHITE WOLF, out of the Country. T'CHALLA wanted his leadership to be
open, just and honest. This did not make his older brother happy to say the
least and he hated and conspired against T'challa from that day forward.
In my movie idea here, later T'CHALLA meets up with ORORO again and they
rekindle their feelings in a whirlwind romance.
Meanwhile HUNTER conspires to wipe out WAKANDA'S economy and
thus T'CHALLA is forced to nationalize all foreign companies and that's
when TONY STARK enters the picture, he ends up with controlling interest
in the WAKANDAN DESIGN GROUP.
Thus T'CHALLA/BLACK PANTHER must fight WHITE WOLF'S
onslaught to overthrow him and take over WAKANDA and fight to get
back the WAKANDAN DESIGN GROUP and restore his countries
economy.
It's WHITE WOLF VS BLACK PANTHER/BROTHER AGAINST BROTHER & THE HATUT ZERAZE VS
T'CHALLA'S female personal guard, THE DORA MILAJE.

THE HATUT ZERAZE
MY NEW BLACK PANTHER MOVIE FANCAST:
BLACK PANTHER (T'CHALLA): IDRIS ELBA, 6'2¾”, 37
ORORO is a tall toned yet slim female African weather-mutant, not a
tiny skinny little thing like Hale Berry or a big-breasted buff butch-
lesbian like some artists render her! I think Sydney Tamiia Poitier is
the perfect size and shape and acting ability to effectively portray
ORORO MUNROE. But of course STORM is stuck at FOX so until
MARVEL/DISNEY get off their duffs and get the rights at least to
use her in THE BLACK PANTHER it'll unfortunately never be!
But in my “Perfect World” fancast...here she is! LOL
ORORO MUNROE (STORM): SYDNEY TAMIIA POITIER, 5'11”, 36
Sydney Tamiia Poitier has the statuesque regal beauty that simply fits the
weather-mutant/goddess and future Wakandan Queen, ORORO!
It's those long exquisite legs that give her the statuesque height.
WHITE WOLF (HUNTER): D.B. WOODSIDE, 6'3”, 41
I feel ADAWALE AGBAJE has just gotten too old to really play the part of
T'CHALLA/BLACK PANTHER but I think he's ideal to play his father,
T'CHAKA, when T'CHALLA is yet a boy and sees KLAW kill his father,
then turning KLAW'S own sound weapon on him and destroying his hand.
T'CHAKA: ADAWALE AKINNUOYE AGBAJE, 6'2”, 43
KANDYSE McCLURE, from BATTLESATR: GALACTICA would be great to play T'CHALLA'S
lovely mother N'YAMI, who dies in giving birth to him.
N'YAMI: KANDYSE McCLURE
VINCENT CASSEL is good at playing arrogant vicious foreign guys! Just check
him out in "EASTERN PROMISES".
KLAW (ULYSSES KLAW): VINCENT CASSEL
TONY STARK (IRONMAN): ROBERT DOWNY JR.
Joe Morton is a great actor and always playing wise men of authority and would
be ideal as T'CHALLA'S main adviser, N'GAZZI.
N'GASSI: JOE MORTON
W'KABI is one of T'CHALLA'S top confidantes and a leader of his warriors.
W'KABI: TAYE DIGGS
S'YAN: DANNY GLOVER, 6'3½”
YOUNG S'YAN: MEHCAD BROOKS, 6'3”
QUEEN MOTHER (ROMANDA): ALFRE WOODARD
