Marvel's Black Panther Adds Forest Whitaker to Cast

The cast of Marvel's Black Panther movie is adding yet another big-name African-American actor to its cast; Variety reports that Forest Whitaker has joined Black Panther, in an undisclosed role that is being kept "under wraps..."

So far, Black Panther has stacked an impressive cast. Oscar-winner Chadwick Boseman is already a fan-favorite for his portrayal of T'Challa/Black Panther. In his solo film debut he's joined by Oscar-Winner Lupita Nyong'o, and Walking Dead's Danai Gurira as allies to T'Challa, while Michael B. Jordan, Andy Serkis and Winston Duke as villains Killmonger, Klaw and Man-Ape, respectively.
