The character of Michael B. Jordan in

Black Panther

may be dead ... the actor is ready to re-emerge for the second installment of the franchise!

The comedian who played Erik Killmonger in the Marvel film released in 2018 revealed in an interview with 

People

that he was very keen to return to Wakanda.

“It is very, very close to my heart for a lot of obvious reasons.

I had a very difficult year losing a loved one.

It was devastating.

But this world, this character that I loved playing and working with Ryan Coogler, is family.

Being there again is a project that will always be on the table, one way or another, ”he said, referring to the death of Chadwick Boseman, whom he considered to be. a big brother.

Relaunch the saga

In fact, the death of the actor, star of the first film, upset all the plans of Kevin Feige, the architect of the MCU, concerning the future of

Black Panther

.

If the producer has already announced that Chadwick Boseman will not be replaced in the role of T'Challa and that it was out of the question to replace him with a digital version, it is clear that the franchise is now sorely lacking in "Star power".

The presence of Michael B. Jordan, who cemented his status as a leading actor since the release of the first film [he was even quite simply voted the sexiest man in the world], would therefore be a considerable asset to relaunch the saga. .

Ryan Coogler, who is due to return behind the camera for

Black Panther 2

, has not given any details on the direction the story will take, but Michael B. Jordan was the star of the director's first three films.

If he has the opportunity to reintegrate it into his new blockbuster, we can imagine that he will.
