7. Wesley Snipes Was Almost Black Panther
Before he became Marvel’s Blade, Wesley Snipes tried to launch a Black Panther movie in the 1990s. At one point, Boyz N the Hood director John Singleton came on board to direct. He left when Snipes insisted that the Black Panther story take place in Wakanda (Singleton wanted to set the film in America during the Civil Rights movement). Unfortunately, the still-prevalent notoriety of the Black Panther Party curtailed plans.
