Is there a compelling reason Tate Taylor shouldn't be considered? His films thus far have been surprisingly robust for what they are, and he already got great work out of Boseman.
Yes Tate Taylor for sure. :thumbdown:

Feige mentioned Reginald Hudlin the day they announced the film as up for consideration, and he actually wrote Black Panther in the past. F. Gary Gray was also up for the directing spot for Winter Soldier but dropped to do Compton once that got greenlit. Maybe Gray directs and Hudlin writes, or just Hudlin as director and writer?

If Hudlin blowing up with Compton means hell be too busy to do this I could see Peter Ramsey (Rise of the Guardians) doing it. Fits Marvel's MO of smaller directors.

"Ulysses Klaue was an assassin hired to take down T'Chaka at the Bilderberg conference in the case that he refused to negotiate Wakanda's resources including Vibranium. But, Klaue was also there personally, as the Panther killed his great-grandfather in the 19th century while this one was trying to annex Wakanda. He was paid ten million dollars for the kill."

So they'll wait until the script's done before they hire a director? So much for 'creative directorial vision'...

Cole's directed in the past so he may get the director role too.
