Cyborg is in the justice league no solo movie out yet

Storm is in the xmen no solo movie out yet

Static is just getting a movie now. The avengers and justice league have black members too u know lol, u dont need to change races.

And that point doesnt really make sense when the only black leading character on a comic book show is luke cage and the show got canceled after 2 seasons lol. Those other characters on the other shows are supporting roles. And cloack and dagger and runaways come on now

There's a thought that the Cyborg movie wasn't made because it would cost too much for them to make his cybernetic parts, but I agree he should get a movie. They took time, but they gave us the superhero film with a black lead, so I'm sure we'll get more. I don't see the point in complaining about his name though when he was named in the 60s. Who besides Wolverine has a solo movie? Just because they're supporting characters doesn't mean they're not represented. What's wrong with Runaways?

Other than ‘Black’ Panther, what ‘Black’ named hero is he referring to?

Well, yeah. I just posted that we need more GOOD black super heroes. Not just more black superheroes.

There's also Black Manta for the DC antiheroes btw.

Marvel's biggest TV superhero was Luke Cage tho. Boring af imo.

Nothing wrong w supporting characters, but taking the extra step to have a black superhero as the lead and give them more parts and a bigger role in a movie would be nice especially since there has only been 1 since the mcu and dceu started.

I mean those black superheros with black in front of it have racist undertones behind the naming, I think it's fair in not being the biggest fan of a black superhero whose identity is tied to them being black

Runaway is super obscure and barely counts as superhero show to me tbh

The characters were made during more racist times, so it can't be helped. The more known comic book heroes are white which is why I'd say they get more exposure. Lesser known black heroes would probably be treated like Runaways or Cloak and Dagger. Like people didn't even know Black Panther existed before the movie and I talked to people who didn't even know it was a comic after it came out

Well if were being real most of the superheros on avengers weren't A list superheroes before being put on the big screen, ant man, gotg, black widow, iron man and captain america before 2008 were not that know at all either. So putting more black superheroes in the movie can easily turn a character well know just like that, ie black panther. So there should be no issue with putting black superheros as leads especially with the success of black panther

They were already making animated movies about Iron Man and the ultimate Avengers before Iron man came out though. GOTG was possible because people were in the MCU at that point and watching movies. Black Panther was a recent movie, they saw it works, so more will come. That's why I'm saying his argument that it's not here now doesn't make sense. My point about it not being popular was more about TV shows about characters no one knows.

Animated movies and full feature films are two different ballparks, the mcu catapulted the popularity of the avengers to A lister. The true A listers of marvel were all sold to fox which is why they were sold.

Black panther came out almost 4 years ago and there doesn't seem to be no urgency to get more black superheroes on the screen. I mean falcon the next CA is not even getting a solo he getting a tv show with another white lead. Cyborg movie has no info in sight. Same with static

I’m black but it’s not that hard too see why they didn’t before now.

It’s about the money!

Majority of people that historically saw comic book films are white, so of course they are going to market it more to them. Just money.

But obviously inclusion is the cool trend now so your seeing more diversity, but they are only making it more diverse because diversity is making money right now.

The first and last motivation is the money period.
