African Comic Book Hero 'Black Panther' May Finally Get Big Screen Treatment

Fans of pioneering Marvel Comics character Black Panther have been anticipating a big screen adaptation of the story of the African warrior and chief of the technologically advanced Wakanda nation ever since Wesley Snipes announced plans to make a live action film almost twenty years ago. After various snags and halts, the Black Panther franchise will be the next film from Marvel Studios if an exclusive report from Latino Review holds true.

According to the report, Marvel Studios have been hinting that they wanted to create a film for the popular character; first seeing action in 1966 after comic legends Stan Lee and Jack Kirby created Black Panther. Marvel gained the rights to the character in 2005 and last year, documentary filmmaker Mark Bailey was charged to write a script. Fans of the recent crop of Marvel characters coming to life have already linked clues that Black Panther was due to make an appearance. In 2010's Iron Man 2, S.H.I.E.L.D. leader Nick Fury points to a map and highlights Wakanda. Additionally, Captain America's shield is made from the metal vibranium, which is native to Wakanda.

Black Panther, also known as the warrior chief T'Challa, leads Wakanda, considered the most technologically advanced nation on Earth. He has appeared in several animated Marvel Animation properties since 1994, and a joint production with BET led to a six episode animated series developed by director Reginald Hudlin which modernized the franchise.

The next logical question is which actor will be able to pull off playing the lead character?

The 31-year-old singer took a break from Blue Ivy’s nursery to praise her sisters with voices in her cover story.

“Destiny’s Child was a huge part of my career, and I think it’s only natural for people to refer to Destiny’s Child when referring to any of us. For people to call us one of the greatest female groups of all time—are you kidding me? Beyoncé and Michelle are two incredible women and deeper than what the public sees,” she tells the magazine.

“Destiny’s Child, to me, was a sisterhood and a kinship that the three of us shared. You want people to respect that you have your own identity as an artist, but they also remember how they met you.”

So......Do you Love it, or should she LEAVE it alone?

Miss Miguel Warns Other Artists About Biting His Style

My, my, such hostility…
Miguel has a stern warning for the competition: Stay out of his lane or he will “f**k you up.” The R&B crooner is taking a tough stance when it comes to his music and those who try to imitate his style.
The 25-year-old is currently in the studio working on the follow-up to his 2010 debut All I Want Is You. “It’s definitely a progressive album,” he told Mina SayWhat on Philadelphia radio station Power 99. “I would describe it as being progressive in the sense that I’m taking a lot of my more alternative influences and incorporating them.”

Over the past few months he released his trilogy of Art Dealer Chic micro EPs to give fans a taste of his new direction. “‘Adorn’ is a great segway because it’s very soulful, but still has some alternative elements,” he said. “I think that’s what makes it really cool. It’s a very honest representation of where I’m at, but it’s just a segway.”

But those who attempt to adopt his sound should take caution. “I’m just gonna say, ‘Don’t nobody out there step into my fu**in’ lane. Stay where you’re at,’” he warned. “I’m a competitive person and what I’m saying is I’m solidifying my lane and don’t fu**ing come over here ’cause I will f**k you up.”

He explained himself further. “I want everyone to express themselves in a unique way. I’m saying that in an aggressive way ’cause that’s how I really feel, but what I mean by that is find your own thing to do and create your own lane.”
Don’t expect many features on his sophomore album. “I’m a man who wants to stand on his own two feet. I don’t need a fu**ing co-sign. I don’t need that shit,” he said, while adding, “I can’t tell you who I may feature on this next album, but I guarantee you that it will be unexpected.”

While we love Miguel and his music, we don’t think he’s exactly the most intimidating person in the world…

Lady Gaga Suffers Concussion During Performance:

In a video taken by a fan in the crowd, the Mother Monster was in the middle of performing her track "Judas" when one of her backup dancers accidentally dropped a pole he was trying to move on the set on top of her head.

Just so free, wild, happy. What music is all about it." She later tweeted her appreciation as well penning, "And much gratitude to the New Zealand press for the lovely reviews of our show.
