Namor, the new 'Black Panther: Wakanda Forever' antagonist, isn’t just 'another Aquaman.' We talked to actors Tenoch Huerta and Winston Duke at D23 about Namor and how the character can help bring more reality and representation to the MCU.
Opening Nov. 11, “Black Panther” sequel “Wakanda Forever” introduces a character who could be counted among the foundational figures of Marvel Comics: Namor the Submariner, played by Tenoch Huerta.
about donning Namor’s trident. “It could have been any brown-skinned Latin actor, but I got it. I love it, and I’m the guy. I’m Namor now!”, the crowd gave Huerta a sizable ovation as director Ryan Coogler introduced him. The actor, of Aztec and Purépecha origin, brings to life one of the oldest antiheroes in all of comics. Namor the Submariner first hit stands in 1941, looking more like a Vulcan than the being of Mayan and Aztec influence who’s introduced in “Wakanda Forever.
“In our version, it feels a lot more real than fiction. In the MCU fashion, we’ve grounded it in real cultural significance and cultural traditions. You see the Latinx contingent that is present visually. Ryan Coogler’s creation within the Marvel cinematic landscape is one of deep honor and connection to real stuff. So I think a lot of people are gonna see themselves represented.
“You will see them in a light of ... confrontation. We don’t get along. But, it’s funny, in the end, they have too much in common,” said Huerta. “It portrays what is happening here in the States, from my perspective, between the minorities of this country. I think at some point we need to join together and create that different thing.”
