Namor is a nomadic warlord in Atlantis, Attuma also believes that he was destined to conquer the aquatic land of Atlantis. Alongside the art for Attuma, MCU Facility also gave fans a look at a possible design for Namor, the Sub-Mariner himself, who has been rumored for months before making his Marvel Cinematic Universe debut in the sequel to the Black Panther aka Black Panther 2.

Speculations started hurling in around Wakanda Forever and ts the live-action appearance started circulating in June last year, after a rumor hinted that Tenoch Huerta( Narcos: Mexico, Spectre) has been cast as the character.

While his MCU debut hasn’tbeen confirmed by anyone officially c or either MCUDisney, it was reported that the Sub-Mariner will be surely appearing in the forthcoming Wakanda Forever as the movie’s main antagonist.

Wakanda Vs. Atlantis

In the pages of Marvel comics, Namor’s kingdom is mostly not very nice to Wakanda, which has been teased in a recently released synopsis for Wakanda Forever, which has focused on Wakanda’s vibranium, something that “Namor’s human father was sent searching for …in Antarctica.” The “intertwined history” between Atlantis and Wakanda is highlighted, as the two are civilizations that had separated themselves from outside human world to protect their ways of life.

Namor’s debut into the MCU was already teased in Avengers: Endgame (2019) while mentioning “underwater earthquakes,” something Christopher Markus who was a co-writer on Endgame, would later address in 2020.

“Sometimes, you plant seeds. Sometimes, they grow,” he said. However, when the theories first began circulating that these underwater earthquakes could point to Namor, Markus said, “I wish we were that smart.”

Directed by Ryan Coogler, Black Panther 2 will arrive in theaters on Nov. 11, 2022.
