Namor the Sub-Mariner

[terry78]

Daniel Henney would also work.

 

[Dark Raven]

Keanu

He's already rumoured to be playing in Eternals, and also we don't need a 54-year old Namor.

 

[Albright]

he looks 10 years younger
and also: „some people“ don’t need a 54 old Namor - not „we“

 

[Electricmastro]

Seeing as how Namor was apparently born in 1920 and fought in World War II, I suppose an "old Namor" is inevitable, unless the MCU crew excludes Namor's wartime experience history. I wouldn't be in favor of that though...

Making Namor a man in his 50s would be like trying to fit a square peg in a triangular-shaped hole.

Which is probably why his head is that shape now.

I mean, he's a mutant that's not fully human to begin with, so they could probably use this as an excuse to have him nearly be 100 years old, but still seem young, like how Wolverine is over 100 years old. I think the newest Invaders comics go along with this idea as well.

It's landlocked.
Maybe access to sea by way of rivers, but they have to pass through other countries to get to the coast.

Which is exactly my point: using Namor in a BP movie is just *dumb*. There is no good reason for them to even meet, let alone to have any kind of meaningful conflict.

I agree
Even the whole reason why he went to Wakanda and caused the destruction was forced... Even more forced was the whole teaming up with Doom for the Vibranium. All of that was just some weakly plotted roadmap to get from point A to point B, namely Namor vs BP, with T'Challa going for blood.

 

[Albright]

i agree, i wanted to see more of wakanda in bp2 - not atlantis.
but i would to see atlantis in another movie. but i can’t see him being introduced other then Bp or F4. And F4 should be fucussed on the the 4 members and not a threat from atlantis

 

[The Caped Knight]

Called it!

 

[Boom]

PLEASE.

 

[terry78]

They couldn't resist after that little drop fro Akoye.

 

[Web-Head]

Called it!

Namor is probably the one character that hasn't been introduced yet that I'm most excited for, aside from the Fantastic 4. I really hope it's true, but I don't trust the source. Not getting my hopes up

 

[metaphysician]

So, I've asked this question before many times: what sense does it make for Namor and T'Challa to get into any conflict at all? Wakanda is landlocked, and almost certainly doesn't pollute much ( certainly not the ocean ). Where, exactly, is any kind of conflict supposed to arise?

 

[The Guard]

Maybe they're fighting over Sue Storm?

Unless they use Hollywood geography where places are nowhere near where they're actually located in real life:



No you silly woman. He'll end up nowhere near Greenwich. He's not even on the right train line.

Or RDJ getting from beneath the Houses of Parliament to the top of Tower Bridge in Sherlock Holmes. Completely impossible.

Maybe Wakanda (which is located somewhere within the Democratic Republic of Congo) will be right next to the Indian Ocean.

 

[The Guard]

I would imagine they'll come into conflict over their dealings with a third imaginary country.

Which, along with its ruler, shall remain nameless for the moment.

They're doomed.

Namor famously flooded Wakanda in the comics. Will we get such a catastrophe in Black Panther 2? That would change everything, but Marvel Studios has shown us it's not afraid of radical changes in sequels.

How is that even possible? Depending on where he's coming from, in order to drown Wakanda, Namor also will have to drown Gabon, Angola, Tanzania, Burundi and Rwanda as well, or really the whole of the southern or south eastern part of the continent. How is he going to get the water there otherwise?

He'll... teleport the water...

Or maybe there's a big lake near Wakanda lol

That's a question I wanted answered right when it happened in the comics. The'll probably come up with a under ground tunneling system or instead of Wakanda drowning, it will be some off shore Vibranium refinery or something that has many casualties and will hurt the nation.

I honestly think they will do Hollywood geography to achieve it if they even decide to include that. They'll figure no-one will know where Wakanda is exactly or where the Democratic Republic of Congo is (even though you could easily look on a world map).

I mean, they did the Greenwich thing in Thor 2.

If Namor were like Superman, he could freeze a lake and then drop it on Wakanda.

 

[Silvermoth]

Gosh imagine how many ships there’s going to be once namor appears. Probably even enough to replace cap x winter soldier.

I mean, people were moist enough for the shape of water dude and he’s hardly GQ material
