Michael B. Jordan Confirmed For Black Panther Film
It's an odd way to confirm a movie role, but Michael B. Jordan was asked random questions by THR's Ashley Lee and she got him to confirm not only his role in the upcoming Black Panther film, but also that Lupita Nyong'o will also be in the film.
When asked who he can't wait to work with, the actor replied:
… Lupita Nyong'o and Chadwick Boseman [in Black Panther.]
So either he knows that Nyong'o is in the film or he's really hoping it happens. This will be the third time Jordan will work with Black Panther director Ryan Coogler. The two teamed up for Fruitvale Station and Creed previously.
Also of note, Jordan will be the second person to have played Johnny Storm in a Fox Fantastic Four film to then by cast as another character in the Marvel Universe by Marvel Studios. Chris Evans being the other. Though we are still not sure what Jordan's role will be at this time.
