Michael B. Jordan Joins Marvel’s Black Panther

Another member of the Creed cast is joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Michael B Jordan is joining his friend and Director Ryan Coogler in the studio’s production of Black Panther.

While his role is being kept under wraps as usual, the word is that he will be playing a villain opposite Chadwick Boseman’s Panther according to THR.

This is the second high profile casting this week with Lupita Nyong’o coming aboard the film as a possible love interest for the lead character.

All we can say after witnessing Captain America: Civil War is this is film shaping up very nicely and we can’t wait to see the end result.

Directed from a script by Coogler and co-writer Joe Robert Cole, Marvel’s Black Panther hits theaters February 16, 2018.
