Actress and filmmaker Lupita Nyong’o is reportedly in talks with Marvel Studios for a starring role in the highly anticipated Black Panther film. This end credits scene is one of the many in the Marvel Cinematic Universe where we see the plot progressing and teasing future films in the franchise.

She could also potentially play one of the Dora Milaje, the squad of female soldiers that guard T’Challa. She met T’Challa in NY where he was working as a teacher under the pseudonym, Luke Charles, according to Marvel.com. With the film now in the works, there are already reports as to who will star alongside Chardwick Boseman, who plays the titular character for the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
In the recently released Captain America: Civil War the “Black Panther” character, played by Chadwick Boseman, was introduced.
Given the great working relationship he developed with Jordan on their two previous films, it’s no surprise that Coogler would cast the rising young movie star in his biggest feature project to date.
Black Panther #2 is available digitally through the Marvel Digital Comic Shop and at all local comic book retailers.
This will be the third time Michael has worked alongside Ryan, following his star-making roles in Fruitvale Station and Creed. Shooting is expected to start on the movie in early 2017.
Lupita Nyong’o’s character has not been revealed by the movie officials.
We personally think Nyong’o matches the unbelievable level of acting that Boseman boasted in Civil War and Marvel would be very lucky to keep her locked down for a few years.

But aside from being fierce warriors, the Dora Milaje is also a ceremonial training group for the Black Panther’s wives-to-be. Boseman made his costumed debut in Captain America: Civil War to a very positive response.
