BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

#RyanCoogler Will Direct BLACK PANTHER

Now it's official via vulture, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige confirmed to Empire that Ryan Coogler would helm the film featuring a "mostly black cast." "This one is important," Feige said. "Not only do you get an unbelievable lead character, but you also get all of Wakanda which is a whole new setting and culture to explore." Before Coogler's name was in the mix, Marvel was reportedly courting Selma's Ava DuVernay for the job of bringing Chadwick Boseman's T'Challa to the screen, but she declined the offer because it "wasn't going to be an Ava DuVernay film."

Coogler will be only the second Marvel director not to be a white guy, after Thor: Ragnarok's Taika Waititi. Either way, it's been an impressive rise for the 29-year-old director, whose previous film, Fruitvale Station, won him the Independent Spirit Award for Best First Feature in 2014.

But what happens when that evidence gets seen by friends, neighbors, and even the mailman? This is the plot that pits Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) in an effort to secure every iPad gift Jay has given, his record company playlists being the envy of the recipients, but which has also inadvertently spread the video to every device. The reason for the act - termed in the movie as pulling "the full Lincoln " for its three-hour length - stems from the couple's non-existent social life, brought on by the constant demands of their children. The couple has a lot to lose: a burgeoning business relationship between Annie and Hank (Rob Lowe) could end if the iPad she's given to Hank exposes the video, and so the couple sets out to reclaim and wipe the incrim...
