Like others have said, Chestnut would not be my first choice, but if he is cast I'm okay with it. I think he could handle the role well enough, though I am concerned about him doing an African accent.
From what I've heard so far, I'm not sure that Chestnut meant he was going to be T'Challa or if he was just going to be another Black Panther associated character. At this point he could be up for the role of Killmonger for all we know.
