How do you think they should handle Namor after Aquamans success?? Could it be different?? Who should write and direct and who should play Namor?? Thoughts??

A bit darker than Aquaman. Starring Zachary Quinto or Luke Evans. Avoid a origin story close to the comics - the son of an Atlantean Princess and a human sea captain - .Aquaman seemed to have appropriated that for it's film (Aquaman's comic origin is not the same as the film)

I think comparisons would be inevitable. Though to distinguish his character from Arthur Curry better, they ought to really play up his antiheroic qualities. Oddly enough, something similar to Patrick Wilson as Orm was in that movie.

I'd like Rick Yune for Namor. Make him the next villain for the Avengers, him and Atlantis. That way his introduction is different from Arthur. Then slowly develop him into a reluctant ally and anti-hero in the following movies like they did with Loki. So instead of the rough, hard drinking biker tough guy act that Arthur was, make this guy a flat out villain first who's a cold blooded ruler. That should be enough of a contrast between Namor and Aquaman. Honestly, he can be the next big thing in the MCU if done right.

Skaathar yeah he'd be perfect. Especially for his motivation speech where he accuses the Avengers of sending S.W.A.T to his house, disrespecting his whole family, and all because one of them narced him out.

Yeah thats why I brought it up because he could be the next big Marvel hero if done right. Making him a villain first is a cool idea.

I figured the Avengers have already taken on threats from outerspace, it might be cool if the next threat was a full invasion coming from the seas instead.

Very underrated actor in my opinion, one of the better things about Die Another Day(007) and Olympus Has Fallen.

They'll have to ditch the wings on Namor's ankles. (Audiences would laugh.)

I like the idea that he was always there just underwater. Now he has to come out because they are polluting his oceans.

He also first appeared in 1939 attacking humans for polluting the ocean, so he could come in as a villain/anti-hero challsnging Wakanda over some slight he sees them as responsible for. He also has hooked up with Doom Introducing him as a bad guy would preserve his origin, particularly if the cause for ire were diffused-not actually the fault of Wakanda, etc. Say a Wakandan ship crashes into the ocean, killing a bunch of Atlanteans. Namor goes on the attack, but it turns out thieves/poachers/Hydra remnants did it, framing Wakanda Namor is introduced, but doesnt have to carry the movie.

Villain in Black Panther? Team-up with Dr Doom? Wakanda vs. Atlantis. I actually have a comic where they go at it. If Dr. Doom is present I'd prefer that he wasn't there for most of the time. Wouldn't want him to overshadow Namor's presence, don't want him to be relegated to a simple thug. It would be better if he was simply the enabler, pretty much how Thanos was to Loki.

I have several issues. So Namor hooked up with Doom for his own gain sort of thing.

However they do it, would be a great way to introduce the Fantastic 4. Namor had a thing for Susan and also was a foe of the team

I think comparisons would be inevitable. Though to distinguish his character from Arthur Curry better, they ought to really play up his antiheroic qualities. Oddly enough, something similar to Patrick Wilson as Orm was in that movie. This is the most likely scenario. They might even pull a Scorpion King: Make him the "villain" in his first movie... and then give him his own movie as the protagonist. edit: He could be an ally/tool of Doctor Doom in the Fantastic Four movie...
