Director Ryan Coogler has an incredibly tough job in following up his 2018 Black Panther solo movie after the tragic death of Chadwick Boseman – but if a new rumour is to be believed, then he’s expanding his corner of the Marvel Cinematic Universe in a big way. As reported by notable scoopers The Illuminerdi, it seems like the highly-anticipated sequel will introduce one of Marvel’s oldest heroes: Namor the Sub-Mariner.
Last year, The Hollywood Reporter revealed that Narcos: Mexico star Tenoch Huerta was in talks to join the sequel in a villain role, although no other details surfaced at the time. But this latest rumour suggests Huerta will take a dive to play the first live-action version of Namor – also meaning that Coogler might introduce yet another hidden kingdom in the MCU, Atlantis.
