Black Panther: Wakanda Forever was finally released this past November, and fans flocked to the cinema to see it. It was an emotional tribute and a final goodbye to the original Black Panther, Chadwick Boseman, who tragically passed away from colon cancer in 2020.

The incredibly talented actor left behind a beautiful legacy and will be sorely missed in future installments of the franchise. May his memory never fade.

We laughed, we cried (sobbed, actually), and we loved every moment of the epic follow-up to the first film. The focus of Wakanda Forever was always going to be Chadwick's farewell, but there was also a new character introduced, and people can't seem to stop talking about him.

His name is Namor, and he is played by Tenoch Huerta Mejía. Namor, whose code name is the "Sub-mariner," comes from an underwater kingdom called Talokan.

The Talokans are not fond of mortals, and Namor is encouraged by his mother to cause havoc on earth, despite his father being human. Namor can survive both under and above water; he is insanely fast and can communicate telepathically with sea life.

But it's not his supernatural powers that have made him a household name. Rather, it's his good looks and epic physique that have caused a stir.

Some fans have even suggested that Namor is one of Marvel's best-ever villains and should have his own movie. Well, we would certainly love to see it, that's for sure!
