These mfs are trying to trick me into supporting race-swapping characters? What next they’re gunna make him a ginger? With a hot sister?
Shiieeeet
I’m still not buying it. However, I will buy more stocks in popcorn for the flaming hissyfits that the bitches on Twatter and BlueFalcon will throw. It will be glorious.
It's a trap!
Nah, but I do wonder if he's going to go tyrant or warmonger or something, and abuse his power and his people.
It's really weird to raceswap the leader of a black African nation, and there might be some further reason. Or Marvel is just so desperate at this point they're ragebaiting.
Definitely just done for shock / baiting purposes.
He’s just going to be a “model white man”. He will show all of the bad whites how to support, affirm, and defer to every tenet of intersectional feminism. Basically another humiliation ritual.
lol no. race swapping is bad in any form.. they are doing this to justify the other swaps. for every 1 non white swapped to white, there is 20 that does the opposite.
Good point. If I took over a studio I’d make that my first rule. Adaptations must have good faith casting.
FINALLY.
Why not? If every medieval village can look like LA in fiction then why can’t he have a white son?
He's had a white step-brother before so it's not the most outlandish thing to try.
Yea. I always thought you could do that. Haven’t read any Black Panther comics in years. Most of the comics I have with him are with his Avengers run
I'll ask the obvious question. Did he steal a baby? Or will the writers try to spin this in some way that the baby was rescued from dying? Not to any neighbours trying to sacrifice him, but something more like Tarzan even though that still paints Wokenda as a city of gorillas.
A white adopted relative wouldn't even be a new thing here, there was a character called Hunter who was the secret adoptive brother of Black Panther years ago. It's all just click bait to drive engagement at this point.
rare genetic defect will be my guess..
and they'll play the sympathy card like "see! see! this is what backs go through in america!"
oh, wait, that would be mildly clever, nevermind.
Even if you complete change skin tone it doesn't change other physical features such as skull, jaw, and lip structures. That pic is a white guy.
yeah, but this is a comic book movie. fast and loose is the rule rather than the exception.
If he is not portrayed as some evil colonizer we will have Floyd 2.0
does anyone have that one digital painting of white black panther? you know the one I'm talking about.
When do we see the prequel about his white mother: Caucasian Cougar?
... you mean, T'Challa's mullato son? This is like when people kept screaming Obama was a black president.
I could've sworn there was already a white Black Panther years ago...
There was, but it depended a lot on how the art was done.

There was also this one.

Since Ketema is clearly going to be a baddie, can we have them as transgendered, disabled and a Harris supporter?
Or is it only OK to hate on the Jews when they're Palestinian?
Real "Yeah, SOUTH African..." energy here.
