BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE Featurette

Chadwick Boseman Talks Black Panther

With the first trailer for Marvel’s Captain America: Civil War finally online we got a quick glimpse at Chadwick Boseman in costume as Black Panther. If you were wondering quite how the man also known as T’Challa fits into the sprawling superhero slug-fest, Boseman has opened up to Entertainment Weekly on the subject.



Set to be introduced in Civil War ahead of his own stand-alone film in 2018, Black Panther will show up as more of a neutral party in the conflict over the superhero-registering Sokovia Accords backed by Tony “Iron Man” Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) and resisted by Steve “Captain America” Rogers (Chris Evans), though he’ll lean towards Tony's side of the argument. Just don’t expect him to be wise-cracking as much as some of the others. “He’s definitely not the life of the party in this instance,” Boseman tells EW. “I think this is something true of the comic book character and the movie. You never quite know where he stands. There’s always a bit of concealing and mystery. So I think mysterious is more his boat. Not to say there’s not charm and he can’t be a ladies’ man and all that. It’s more like if there is humor, it’s more like James Bond.”

He is, however, not quite the settled and learned man found in the comics either. “In publishing, he is sort of this very wise and a sanguine figure who seems to know more than he lets on,” producer Nate Moore says. “I think this is Black Panther in his younger years, where he maybe is a little bit more fiery than I think how they write him in the comics because he’s very much in the nascent stages of being a hero. So that means he is probably more fallible than the Black Panther that you read in comics, but for reasons that are completely logical.”

He’ll also confront fitting into the world he and his people have suddenly been dragged into after years staying out of the various superhero scraps. “There definitely is a sort of tradition that he’s torn between, in terms of how things were done in the past and how things need to happen now in this new world,” says Boseman. “I think there’s perhaps a bit of a maverick there, and then there’s also a need to live up to traditions and his father’s legacy. And not even his father’s legacy, but the entire nation of Wakanda. I think those are the things you will see.” For more about T’Challa’s introduction to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, head to EW’s site.

Sex Tape Review: Overly Sexual, Rude, Vulgar, and Absolutely Hilarious

The raunchy Sex Tape will divide audiences and critics, but who cares? Sex Tape suggests a growing practice among loving partners: that of making a raunchy testament of their escapades for posterity. 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
