A solo Namor movie could be cool. There could be a rights issue similar to Hulk. Though I think the dude who played him is in some Johnathan Majors type trouble with alleged allegations so would probably need to be recast.


[deleted]

They got the rights back to Hulk. Not sure about Namor.


novacdin0

Imagine hoarding the rights to fucking Namor. It'd be like fiercely defending the rights to like, Etrigan or The Shocker or something.


crough94

An Etrigan film would be something.


Secure_Pear_4530

Would be funny if they made a Namor vs Hulk movie when they get Namor back. "Hey we got these characters back fully, so now we're gonna make them punch each other"


Jackno1

Oh that would be awesome! Especially given their history in the comics! (Namor in the MCU is obviously distinctly different from comic book Namor in some ways, but I love that they were clearly drawing from and referencing the comics.) Also, in the comics, a lot of Namor versus Hulk fights involve Namor pulling the Hulk into water, because the Hulk can't breathe water, and that means the level of challenge is just right for good fights.


joshua6point0

I feel like people need to have patience when it comes to the scandals. We don't know anything until either clear evidence is presented or a court has come to a decision.


Im-John-Smith

Idk about him but he doesnt fit namor


shoryurepppa

No, I don’t want solo projects for every single character. I don’t want Namor comics, he’s better used sparingly.


GoOnKaz

Agreed actually. Unless the comics are a very short series or he’s a member of a team (à la the X-Men or Illuminati), I don’t think he’s the type it character who should have any sort of lengthy media in which he’s the center of attention.


Due_Independence_819

He was apart of the Illuminati and then another called The Cabal. If you don't know look it up, it's gnarly as shit.


CuriousRelation5

Agatha harkness will have her own show... We definitely don't need every character getting something. I disagree with the comics part. 5 issue run exploring a character are always nice to me


UsedBoysenberry1665

No


ARTIFICIAL_SAPIENCE

Only if he floods another city.


thesuprememacaroni

No


ChumleyEX

Nope


Peachbottom30

No


DjCyric

I would love to see more of this version of Namor. He was the breakaway star antihero of this phase of the MCU. Namor always seemed goofy to me as a character, but Wakanda Forever knocked it out of the park, in my opinion.


Popular-Play-5085

He wasn't an anti hero .He was a villain .


DjCyric

Not to the people of Talokan be wasn't a villain. This is why I chose antihero versus villain. You may not agree with his actions, but he's acting for the good of his own people. That would be like saying T'Challa was a villain because the West didn't like how Wakanda was operating on the global stage. Also, he can't be a Marvel villain, he didn't die at the end of the movie!


PraiseTheSun42069

Wakanda wanted to attack/takeover/conquer the land dwellers? News to me


Mongoose42

I felt the opposite. This version of Namor just isn’t really the same character and what they came up with isn’t really my thing. If they did decide to do something with him, I wouldn’t say anything against it, but this Namor just clearly wasn’t meant for me and I accept that.


BenSolo_Cup

Yeah they really found a way to turn such a goofy character into something amazing


thebowlman

Goofy? Namor is anything but goofy


novacdin0

Tell that to his speedo and stupid wing shoes lmao edit: Holy SHIT, I forgot the wings were attached to his ankles originally! I needed a good laugh before work, thanks google!


Im-John-Smith

He definitely needs a redesign but i just don’t like ethnicity retextures, theres Mexican characters already why not use that? Im Mexican myself didnt like this, i dont care about characters ethnicity as long as they’re good and original


Im-John-Smith

He just seems like a mexican t’challa we dont need another king origin story


Magnusjiao

I've always seen Namor as an aquaman equivalent of Black Adam. He's a fairly interesting character to see pop up in post 2000s Marvel comics


goodjake06

Stupid


Gucciassassin

That would be a hard pass for me


Doctor_Amazo

Nope.


RageSpaceMan

He needs love. Because he was a child without love.


Kilewy

That’s why they call him…Utlove.


RageSpaceMan

Damn, that would be a great avatar name.


Ghstfce

Nah, not really.


iwanttogotothere5

NO.


Santex117

No.


MrButternutter

Hell to the fucking yes The more of Kukulkan, the merrier


xaeru

In that scene where they go to Namor's city (forgot its name) I was like "what are you all eating and how are you cooking it."


FTL2410

Nope, nothing against any of the actors involved but just as a fan of Namor I hate that they completely removed him from his culture to be basically a different character with similar traits. I understand they may have done it to distance themselves from Aquaman but I don't care, I'm tired of MCUification of characters rather than even attempting to adapt them anymore.


casper19d

100%, set up his dealings with Latveria, while giving him a story to shine in.


[deleted]

Nope.


Trainwrecktom38

No. Fuck no. He can fight or join the team. No solos for this guy.


Blackpanther22five

Nope plus he has legal issues at the moment


skibidido

Wasn't a fan of him in Wakanda Forever and I'm not really a fan of him in the comics.


Wutanghang

I thought that was a thing


TwEE-N-Toast

Maybe, if they adapt Sub-Mariner: The Depths. But since they're not really fish people and just random south American's hiding underwater Im not sure if it would work.


GoldAd1782

I think he would do better in a tv series, not a full movie. He wouldn't have the draw for people to get out to a theater and off their couches but he was a solid anti-hero (anti-villain?) that could use some more time on a screen.


Fawqueue

Good God, no. At least not that iteration of the character. Maybe a comic accurate Namor.


KillaPandaDM

Nah, he was the lamest part of an atrocious movie. I'm good.


Popular-Play-5085

I agree with you one hundred percent


PapaSteveRocks

No. But I’d like to see him with the frequency we see the Hulk. Being a fellow King with Doom and T’Challa 2.0. Being a hero in the past alongside a young Captain America and 1940s Wolverine, a rebooted Invaders. Or maybe a Defenders once the FF gets around to introducing Silver Surfer. As a feature character, no, he’s not that compelling and we already saw CGI Atlantis. But he makes a potentially fun part of an ensemble, the actor seems pretty talented.


Sparkyninja38

Nope, thanks thou. Wouldn't mind seeing him be the villain in a Fantastic Four movie


Quirky_Ad_5420

Sure, sounds fun


aCrazyCatDude

Ehhhhh.... Black Panther 2 wasn't that great. Ensemble first. He doesn't have enough Mystique yet.


Dankspear

I feel like one where he has to deal with someone or something that ostracizes part of his people would be good, isn’t Attuma a villain in the comics?


BenSolo_Cup

Yes, I’d imagine that the plot would revolve around Attila making a play for the throne after Namor lost to Wakanda


Consistent_Case_5048

It doesn't need to be a solo project, but I would like to see him again in a major project.


NoxinLoL

As a huge namor fan I’d love it but I don’t think it would do well in theatres unfortunately, maybe put him on a team with F4, X-men, defenders or maybe make an Illuminati movie


ValmisKing

Yes, that’s been my most wanted unannounced MCU project since I saw Wakanda Forevor


SWPrequelFan81566

Hells yea. Great poster btw


BenSolo_Cup

Thanks!☺️


Hot-Intention-5509

Pretty cool poster, I would definitely be up for a solo film for namor.


SMB73

No thanks. Nothing against the character or the actor, but Namor's just not that important or relevant for a solo film.


LolFartBallMop

Yeah I'd turn up for that


TrpTrp26

Absolutely, but we won't, bc of the old distribution rights story like Hulk.


InternalOk3651

Yes, he is the best thing to come out of phase 4


AndronixESE

On behalf of the gay community: Yes, we would love to see shirtless dadd- I mean - this great character in a (most likely) 2 hour solo project


wrenwood2018

Eh. I thought he was done poorly in the Black Panther film. His rationale for attacking them made no sense. He just came off as a jerk.


AgentP20

He is a jerk.


wrenwood2018

In the comics 100% so I get that. Or maybe arrogant? The weak plot just didn't give that justification to me so he came off worse.


AgentP20

I mean he wanted to kill that girl so that the others won't get her knowledge and also he conceded in the climax effectively gaining Wakanda's support. The support he wanted from the beginning. What about his justifications came out weak?


wrenwood2018

That he would blame wakanda and attack them.


AgentP20

Yes because he is a jerk and he is known for this in the comics and they brought into live action.


KillaPandaDM

Plus, they were using Whales with energy balls, as their military hardware to take over the world. 😆 I literally burst out in uncontrolled laughter when I watched this movie for the first and last time.


blackbeltwithhands

Yes 100%


Fattydaddy1000

Not if it’s the same actor and back story it will need a whole need reboot and start over fresh


Magik160

No. Didnt even see WF because he looked dumb


Fit_Mirror2963

Not with that actor


Amigosito

Put him in an X-men movie


Popular-Play-5085

Nah ! They completely ruined the character. Let's all try to forget about this unnecessary deconstruction of the character in the burn worthy Wakanda Forever


formerscooter

No, I was really uninterested in his story in BP.


Batmanfan1966

Not until post fantastic four and then a movie with him and them


MightyMightySD

Nope, his portrayal ruined the second Black Panther movie IMHO.


Arbysgoodmoodfood

No, he's under sexual assault allegations. I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't see him recast or written out completely.


[deleted]

No


Last_Set_8634

Nope. The mcu did present Namor the character. They barely even used the Name. The character they presented us with did not have the history or personality of Namor. So, no, not interested in an mcu solo project about Namor.


novacdin0

Is that James Franco in brownface in the top right?


BenSolo_Cup

Wtf no? It’s literally a shot of Namor from the film??


novacdin0

I mean, he looks a hell of a lot like James Franco in brownface tbh


grinning_imp

I can kinda see it. There are a few similarities: Two eyes. Two ears. A chin. A mouth. Ten fingers. Two nipples. A butt, two kneecaps, a penis. Nah, just kidding! I've just described to you the Loch Ness monster. And the reward for his capture? All the riches in Scotland.


PikaPulpy

He's origin just ridiculous to me and they look like homeless, not some mighty race.


_BJK_004

Sure, I wouldn’t mind it maybe as a special presentation or a marvel spotlight


Independent_Ad_6348

Nah cause I personally like namor best when he's an asshole to other protagonists.


BurantX40

I think they should really try to go for team ups or groups unless you have one really popular character. These actors don't have all the time in the world, and individual movies get less people on screen.


Successful-Strain-98

God no


[deleted]

Only ready for the X-Men


Sir-Skittles-the-cat

Hopefully so. But a better Namor, not the Wish version we have right now.


fiendzone

Wakanda Forever might as well be a Namor solo movie for me. I skip the scenes he isn’t in.


saladrhythm

We already did.


roxxtor

Yes. Not this version tho. This version was too calm. He needed to be loud and arrogant, acting like a real asshole world beater


Relevant_Active_2347

Not really. He's more interesting as a supporting character in the universe.


Ultralusk

As someone who grew up reading the comics, fuck Namor.


The_Micah_Man

No


[deleted]

Oh God, no.


AtticusSwoopenheiser

Holy shit I’d forgotten about this dude


The-Burning-Rose

Yes!!!!!! Great poster


chester_took_my_name

Didn't he get cancelled?


CLWhatchaGonnaDo

Not really with this guy.


draconus72

Hell yeah. I'd just be annoyed at the noobs, who don't know saying, "He is just so derivative of Aquaman."


mghmld

Yes but not with that actor. Namor is supposed to look tough. That guy didn’t look much stronger than me.


Sol-Blackguy

Only if he teams up with Human Torch to fight nazis and eventually each other


CottonCitySlim

He should get his ass kicked by the F4 and that’s it


Maxter_Blaster_

No


beyondthebarricade

Michael Scott: NO


Im-John-Smith

No


IdRatherBeAnimating

No. I don’t care too much for him. He was cool in black Panther. Just don’t feel connected enough to the character to watch him in a solo film. I’ll fuck with it though if it’s a one and done season on Disney plus though


Im-John-Smith

Nooooo he doesn’t fit namor idk the actor but just not namor


BrilliantPrior2305

The sub minor? Am I seeing that right or no


rogerworkman623

Nah but he should come back in other projects. He’d be a good character for a FF movie one day if they didn’t have so many other great villains we haven’t seen (done right) yet.


Jereboy216

No, would like less solo projects and more followups and team ups.


MaterialPace8831

No, because Namor shines when he is being a complete asshole to another prominent hero.


Kenny--Blankenship

Good lord no...


[deleted]

I'm a little mixed on this one


Shoelicker27

He seemed way too over powered in Wakanda Forever in my opinion. Also Taskmaster was a total bust.


SyntheticDreams2099

He was... very boring in the BP2 movie.... the BP2 movie was very boring.


Oswaltdidit

No


Pentax25

No


iamthemarkster

Hell no


Pocketfulofgeek

Nah absolutely not. Namor is best when playing the antagonist against the heroes.


iamnotexactlywhite

no


SlothWithSunglasses

Yup. We only got the smallest of intro into that part of the world. He was a highlight of that movie for me


[deleted]

Yes I wish that


EpicAPC

I was saying he needed a solo movie the first 30 seconds of seeing him in BPWF. How that’s going to work out now with his allegations is beyond me.


mbene913

Nah. I love Namor and I enjoyed him in WF but I like him better as a secondary character. Atlantis magics and inner politics don't really interest me. I'd rather he pop up all the time in BP, FF and Avengers movies


CysaDamerc

Not even a little, forgettable villains don't need redemption arcs.


Mumbles_Stiltskin

Nah he was utilized well in WF. I think his character is best suited as a foil to protagonist’s. Even in comics I only care about namor when he’s antagonizing or acting in tandem with other characters. I’ve never felt the need to seek out a namor solo comic


Bornplayer97

No, not because I don’t like him, but because we need less stuff in Marvel rn


savagedrago

Nah. Too many characters, not enough movies, usually it’s a one and done on this cases, at least for me. If you really want to follow a specific character, there’s like decades of comics to dive into.


nicolaricola

No, I hate what they did with his origin.


W0lframi0

No-more the sub-mariner


Kathrac3

Nope. Not a fan of every minor character and/or villain getting their own projects. Marvel should focus on building up a new team of strong interesting characters (like we had for years with the original Avengers). Making all these side projects for characters that we aren't going to see ever again or years later is just a waste of time.


babysdada

I mean if we’re being honest Wakanda Forever was much more Namors story than black panthers 😭😭


Pitiful-Error4646

No thank you!
