Could jayden smith play black panther

So i was trying to think who would make a good t'challa i got to thinking why not jayden smith because ive always thought to do a black panther movie you need someone fairly young so they can have his dad be alive and they can show him training to pick up the mantle ino jayden might not be black enough in comparison to black panther(skin tone) but im sure if they filmed in Africa he could be and jayden is an a list actor and a world class one by now ive seen him in quite a few things

no....Jayden Smith can't act at all

Jayden Smith can't act, he's also a douche bag, not trying to be funny either.

A young Panther maybe, but an adult... I'm drawing a blank.

No, never. I'm still gonna go with Idris Elba or Michael J. White (c'mon the man is both Black Dynomite AND Mike Tyson).

It's funny because no.

the common would be Elba but I want him with DC

Michael B. Jordan is another common actor

Aml Ameen

Jay Ellis

Lance Gross

they fit the Marvel universe

He is a terrible actor.

He has no charisma.

He is a d*ck.

No.

Yes. Perfect casting.

WHAT THE HELL

people are stating that he can't act, as a reason for him not to be black panther? he doesn't look masculine at all! He'd have to look more like Michael Jai white IMO. (Or Chinese so i could get some good laughs)

These

@kasino: you removed elba from your list as if your doing the casting lol hes already been in 2 marvel films one of which is ongoing hes not gonna show up in a dc movie

Uggggggggggghhhhhhh.

I wouldn't mind Will Smith as T'Challa's father (& so Black Panther when the movie starts) but he might be a little too light-skinned to play the King of a central/west-African country that remains untouched by the rest of the world.

Don't forget Big Willy don't look like the Fresh Prince no more, the man is getting older now.

He played Karate Kid and what does Black Panther know? Karate and stuff. Perfect logic.

t'challa would have one shot those kids though and then manhandled their karate teacher

Sure OP.

@god_spawn: Don't forget that Will Smith can play T'Chaka. Two for the price of one.

aren't we in this thread acting is if we're making casting decisions?

yea but that seems not to matter. depending on how you feel about the Spirit/Losers/V for Vendetta and old Batman movies, actors had roles for both companies. main characters at that.

@son_of_simba: But Jaden Smith knows Karate. And Black Panther knows karate. And both are black. Perfect fit.

Jayden sucks as an actor. I can see his father being T'Challa but him, most definitely not.

@kasino: lol i just don't want you to get your hopes up dude im just saying its highly unlikely unless thor were to end because warner bros wouldn't want to draw comparisons love idris as an actor though and i think there are quite a few dc superheroes he could deffo breath some life into

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo00000000 (I ran out of o's)

of course my hopes aren't up I'm sure we all just throwing out ideas

Black Panther is in Marvel, Elba couldn't play any other roles with Marvel

I just don't think Jayden would make a good BP. He's still on the skinner sider. I'm not sure if he's even reach adulthood yet. Chris Evans is a 33 year old man. Jayden looks and possibly is to much of a child still.

@son_of_simba: I'm assuming you're trolling us. If that was your goal, congrats. It looks like you've succeeded.

@god_spawn: actually according to the internet they were actually doing kung fu and the director insisted on still calling it the karate kid for the sake of brand recognition lol

@son_of_simba: Thank you! I was about to respond. They were doing Wushu

No

@guardiandevil83: Yeah i hate when a movie tries to treat me like an idiot i got suspicious that it wasn't karate with the whole lady mimicking the snake thing because im pretty sure the snake fight style is a form of kung fu what a crappy movie

NO. never. Doing so would require acting skill....which he does not have. At most maybe Will Smith could, but I still wouldn't want him to. But I would never want Jayden to play Black Panther. EVER

@phantom1527: no mr snipes i would never troll you i loved you in blade and demolition man btw :)

I'd rather have Denzel Washington than him. A better choice would be Michael Jai White or Anthony Mackie. Michale B Jordan could pull it off if he could make a good serious, stern face because he's always smiling when I see him. But he's already Johnny Storm so they probably wouldn't want him as panther too.

@son_of_simba: Alright if you say so. So if you are being serious, you think viewers will take Jayden Smith, the dude who dressed as batman to a wedding, was the star of "After Earth", and tweets like a wannabe existentialist, seriously as both a king, superhero and genius? Sounds like you want Black Panther to fail.

I know on Thing, whoever they get vetter be black. Seriously. I, an everyone else would be rather pissed if not

i just cant think of any popular young african actors and i think young is the way to go for reasons i already stated maybe john boyega the dude whos gonna be in the new star wars episode 7 would be a better choice especially if he knocks it out the park in that

Are you talking about son of Will Smith? The guy that can not act, lokks like he is always worried, and also is messed up in the head? (seriously - check his quotes).

Akso - why African American? It is sp hard to find native African actor? An AA ca not make proper african accent, for example

Adding this suggestion to the "ComicVines really stupid casting" list.

Will Smith... is that you?

Jayden Smith? Isn't he like only 13?

@son_of_simba: I don't think Black Panther needs to be 15 years old young. I get he shouldn't be old, but why can't T-Challa be like 25-30?

This is so bad it deserves 4 Hawkeye facepalms.

no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no

You should be Ashamed of yourself.

hell no

Hec NOO

Ya, then Justin Beiber can replace Ben Affleck as Batman!

That's why it's funny, but it's frightening if you think about it happening. You know some jackwagon in Hollywood is considering it already...
