Sequels Casting Storm aka Ororo Iqadi T'Challa aka Hadari Yao

[Iceman]

Now that Disney/Marvel can use the former Fox characters, I am hoping they will be slowly introduced through out the MCU and then at some point come together as the X-Men and then the new X-Men. Have Storm in a Panther film, maybe mention Colossus in the Black Widow film, etc. - follow the Civil War model of how Panther and Spidey were introduced...

Yep, that’s exactly how I want them to do it.

Lupita is such a great actress and she should remain T‘Challas love interest for at least the sequel.

Half Nigerian, half Ghanaian actress Chinyere Yvonne Okoro

Whoever suggested her...she is perfect...and since I'm Ghanaian myself if she were cast as Storm I would be all the way excited

They also need to get her hair right...

Janelle Monae says she has expressed her interest in playing the role to Ryan Coogler.

BossLogic came up with some concept art for what she could look like:

Monae was actually on set for the first BP film, in which her and the entire cadt/crew celebrated Lupita and Danai's joint birthday. This is casting I could get behind!

 

[Shinobi Shaw]

I just wish they’d retire that damn Mohawk for Storm.

It’s tired.

 

[Melpardus]

What about a 'frohawk?

Upon searching, I've only found one take that gives her a 'frohawk:

[Chesterfield]

No.

Nigerian heritage. Talented actress.

I love that some of you are pointing out the importance of having an actress of African decent. I know it's not a deal breaker, but it would be nice to see a dark skin African lady, playing a dark skin African lady.
