An African-American superman would be another ground-breaking moment in the movie world following the success of “Black Panther.”
The Internet was buzzing over reports that the villan could now be the superhero. Sources report that actor Michael B. Jordan could replace Henry Cavil in the new Superman film. Warner Bros. Pictures would be taking a huge step out the box if they decided to cast him for the role.
Nothing is set in stone yet the film company is focusing on working on a Supergirl movie. When the time comes, a major decision is going to have to be made. From the reactions on Twitter, while some are excited, others are fixed on the idea that the superhero can only be one color.
