Following a couple of photos from a latest premiere on Broadway, Marvel followers are fairly sure they’ve discovered their new Storm for the MCU… and it’s an actor some Marvel followers ought to already be accustomed to.
Earlier than all that although, fast segue. The image of the actor in query was taken on the Broadway premiere of the brand new musical “Tooth”.
And sure, in case any of you might be having flashbacks to a horrifying film you watched as an adolescent, this play is an adaptation of that Tooth from 2007.
When you’ve got no concept what I’m on about, good for you. I’m going to wrestle stepping into the plot synopsis for that movie with out inflicting my poor editor a bunch of labor, so Google it when you’re curious. Don’t do it when you’re at work although.
Anyway, again to the image in query. Actor Lupita Nyong’o, maybe greatest identified for her starring function in Jordan Peele’s horror movie Us and her function as Nakia within the MCU movie Black Panther, was noticed on the premiere of the musical dressed because the X-Males character Storm.
Commenters within the Reddit thread exhibiting off the actor’s Halloween costume over on the r/marvelstudios subreddit had been in unanimous settlement that that is the good factor they’ve ever seen, and I can’t blame them as a result of Nyong’o is totally crushing the look.
“Okay now we want her as storm, this was her audition” commented consumer Suavecito70.
“She can be an ideal storm my god” agreed consumer scottirltbh.
Now, after all, Nyong’o most likely received’t be starring within the mainline MCU timeline as Storm anytime quickly. Stranger issues have after all occurred, however recasting an actor inside the primary MCU universe is a fairly uncommon incidence.
However, in a separate universe? Properly, then issues would instantly be much more probably. Possibly we’ll even see the actor pop up within the function in Avengers: Doomsday.
