Black Panther one of the most anticipated coming out of Marvel Studios ever since Chadwick Boseman’s T’Chala stole the film in Captain America: Civil War. Now Marvel can add one of the hottest names coming out of Hollywood as Michael B. Jordan confirmed he will be joining Black Panther.

While talking to The Hollywood Reporter, the Fantastic Four star talked about jumping from Fox to Marvel for his new superhero role and reuniting with his Fruitvale Station and Creed director Ryan Coogler.

He said “I’m super excited, especially to put a different spin on it,” adding “I’m looking forward to working with Ryan once again. It’s going to be a good time.”

Then Jordan in a series of quick fire questions seemingly confirmed another cast member joining the film saying that he couldn’t wait to work with “Lupita Nyong’o and Chadwick Boseman.”

Jordan becomes the second actor to have played the Human Touch in a Fantastic Four film for Fox to then move to Marvel Studios, following in the footsteps of Chris Evans who went on to transform into Captain America.

I personally ever since Civil War, I can’t wait to see the Black Panther film and has become my most anticipated Marvel films and adding talent like Oscar winner Nyong’o and Jordan (who alongside Coolger will win an Oscar in the future) to this film as got me seriously pumped.

Black Panther is schedule to be released in the UK on the 9th February 2018.
