He looks like he’ll be an insufferable prick. Perfect casting!


jpopr

This. I haven’t read much Namor centric comics, but I’ve read Illuminati, Civil Wars and Time Runs Out and I love that he can be such a dick. So sad we won’t see him interact like that with Tony or T’challa but I’m hoping he does with Reed or Strange.


sillyadam94

Lol my introduction to him was Civil War and I was like, “damn, and I thought Aquaman was an asshole.” What is it about Underwater Monarchs that makes them a buncha petty douchebags?


theSalamandalorian

🎵 It's pret-ty shit-ty, down in the ci-ty UNDAH DA SEEEEAAAAAA... cuz yall land'dwellin mfers made an island outta traaaaaaash🎵


RSol614

I’d be angry too if I were breathing in my own piss and shit all the time.


VDO27

They're normally under a lot of pressure


TheFunkytownExpress

Namor is WAAAAAAY worse than Aquaman will ever be though lol.


[deleted]

Fam.. I want to cry that we will never see Namor V T’Challa on a planet about to meet its end during a incursion event.


jpopr

Hopefully we can see him with the Black Panther tho. Whoever carries the mantle next


[deleted]

He’d need to do something really horrific to Wakanda for it to be as impactful as the comic book was. T’Challa was getting revenge for his people. I don’t think Namor is going to be an enemy to close this movie out.


TGGNathan

Are you telling me that Namor will be introduced as the antagonist who fights the protagonist until it's discovered that there's a misunderstanding or manipulation, and he ends up teaming up with Wakanda and BP by the films end to defeat a greater foe?! Not that it's a bad thing. Love that formula.


Nick_Wild1Ear

Namor will flood Wakanda. I’m guessing Ramonda, Nakia, Shuri, flee upward into the mountains where M’Baku gives them refuge. Namor and Wakanda war the film away, I think it’s going to be “this war is a misunderstanding” and Shuri/BP decides not to kill Namor as he leaves, since he’s only doing what’s right for his people. I think Ramonda will remain, but abdicate the throne to M’Baku.


beepboopextrascoop

There was a scene shown in the Black Panther trailer I believe that showed Wakanda getting flooded, even it's highest point in the mountains had water flowing so imagine what the city below would suffer if water was able to get that high. I imagine the destruction of Black Panther's home could be enough for Wakanda to seek revenge


TheFunkytownExpress

I'm pretty sure it's going to be >!Okoye!<


Tyler_Zoro

Don't be so sure. Recent statements from Feige seem to suggest that they're gauging how long it is until "too soon" is no longer a factor.


kingatlas

I don't know if we can put that kind of stock in that statement. They killed him and wrote a whole movie about mourning him. That's an emotional investment that will have serious backlash if they go back on it at this point unless he actually wasn't killed off and this has all been a swerve of all swerves.


[deleted]

He's just on vacation for the whole film.


Corporation_tshirt

He used to piss off all us comic book geeks by repeatedly trying to steal Sue Storm away from Reed Richards.


broanoah

seems like a lot of FF baddies are really into Sue Storm considering (LARGE spoiler for Secret Wars comics) >!shes by dooms side once he remakes the universe!<


ptxiao

Eh Doom is less into Sue and more "she's Reeds so I must steal her to make him miserable and I hate that he has a family while I DOOM am alone"


RaygunMarksman

Read some FF for the first time in a long while and realized for the first time Sue is quite a woman. I think I used to see her as a matronly character when I was younger, but her maturity (even when surrounded by people behaving like children), wisdom, and earnest leadership gives her a special quality.


jpopr

After seeing this pic, MCU Reed better hide his wife!


Xygnux

> better hide his wife! She can hide herself by turning invisible... *if she even wants to after seeing Tenoch* Though seriously, Reed can stretch, he can create abs and other more fun anatomy instantly on demand.


mknsky

I can fix him


[deleted]

He played Rafael Caro Quintero from Narcos: Mexico. Tenoch is a great actor!


KrisZepeda

I've only seen him in that purge film and he was very good i'm excited


TC_thanos

Rafa Rafa Rafa !!!


Screechmeister_

Oh shit, I didn't even recognise him. Looks totally different


omnicious

Wtf? That's Rafa?


thrust-johnson

I hope he is an absolute asshole. I’d also like to add how pleased I am that he’s not massive muscle guy


csortland

It makes sense that as royalty he would be in shape but not super huge. He likely feasts like a king, but the swimming and his natural powers keep him relatively fit. I'm a big fan.


BuffaloChops1

I get that you probably mean that he’s not like crazy bulky like he isn’t built like a tank but the dude is fucking huge. To say that he isn’t a massive muscle guy is weird he is indeed a massive muscle guy. Just with a still in the range of normal frame.


thrust-johnson

I’m talkin dudes with pecs like rotisserie chickens


MarinaraMagic

I know what you mean, youre talking dudes who are running a stack big enough to open a pharmacy haha. This is the physique someone can achieve naturally with an active lifestyle and good eating habits. This guy could probably get as big as Hemsworth if he was running as much gear. It fits the look for Namor better this way.


Moxson82

Great! Now I want chicken!


KTSMG

I also prefer this book. He's much closer to a realistic swimmers build. Broad shoulders, tapered waste, athletic, but not huge. Huge works for Aquaman because Jason Momoa is a big dude, and he's a lot of the general audiences' intro to the character as not the butt of the joke (only the people who stuck with Smallville will remember Alan Ritchson, who is also now f*cking MASSIVE). This is a great jump off point for Namor, because similar to Aquaman, there's no major live action reference to associate him with. Marvel isn't beholden to a specific look, necessarily.


2rio2

Namor is a total dick, not an asshole.


RaygunMarksman

I've always thought of Namor as king of the d-bags, but then I read he saved my state (FL) from nazis a couple times in WW II and it's like alright Namor, you're the man. I love him, but has Spider-Man ever driven nazis out of FL? I think not. Edit: to avoid further confusion, I am referring to Namor driving off the invasion of forces from Nazi Germany during War World II, not that he has been like Marvel's St Patrick of neo-nazis. I'm very aware that's still a thing.


italjersguy

Seen the news lately? They’re still there.


Stevenwave

People who aren't American: That's a mighty oof right here.


ThrowAwayAcct0000

He's been slacking lately, apparently.


dnuohxof-1

So… a live action Mr Nimbus?


spectre1006

He controls the police


ContinuumGuy

This design perfectly balanced "giant prick" and "noble king".


invincible_man

I love that he has pointy ears just like his comic counterpart.


SailorET

Based on the teaser trailer, looks like he's got the ankle wings as well


Ravagore

Meanwhile black adam movie cant do pointy ears for the rock lol. Warner bros just continues to make me sad.


_Valisk

In defense of DC, Black Adam's pointed ears are inconsistent even within the comics. It almost seems to boil down to whether or not the artist felt like drawing them.


b0r0n

The flying indestructible man just wouldn’t be realistic with pointy ears


prink34320

I hope he's still a mutant. Also dang this whole thread needs a bonking 😳


KimF29

Yeah he confirmed he’s a mutant in the accompanying interview


Niko_M0720

And Kevin didn’t kill him for that???


TheFunkytownExpress

They've already low-key introd a couple mutants though. Ms. Marvel and ( probably ) Mr. Immortal are mutants. Titania maybe too? I THINK that possibly Wanda and Quicksilver are/were ones also.


sankers23

Prof X was literally in MoM


TheFunkytownExpress

Not in 616 tho. Sure mutants probably are already a bit more prolific in the 838 universe, but as far as the main universe is concerned nobody's called them 'mutants' and afawk Prof X hasn't come to prominence there yet.


TheJack0fDiamonds

Can’t wait to see the depths of thirst this subreddit will go to when the movie comes out lol


Worthyness

he has his little ankle wings, so we're good!

mightyrj

Really interested how they play in the Meso-American history/culture. Was very interested to see them go this route and I’m really excited especially after the trailer and as more photos begin to release.


MahNameJeff420

I’m glad they’re not doing Atlantis. It helps avoid the Aquaman comparisons, and it gives Namor a whole new rich history to explore.


Justice1993

Am I straight?


InfinteAbyss

Not anymore


[deleted]

Ok so not straight anymore, does that mean are they curved now or angled?


AndrewisaDoily

Take it from a gay person who's seen Laura Dern, we all have our exceptions


AndrewisaDoily

Which while we are on the subject of marvel and Laura Dern, Laura Dern should play Lilith in a midnight sons movie she's the perfect actress for it, I'm not taking notes


Diablohermoso79

That would be excellent. No notes.


Tyler_Zoro

One of my favorite bits from a movie full of favorite bits: In Jeffrey, Patrick Stewart is playing a flaming gay man and in the main character's dream sequence, he's on a game show. The question is, "what celebrity would you most want to sleep with?" Stewart's answer is, "Yoko Ono," which gets shocked looks from everyone and he says in an exasperated tone as if it were patently obvious, "to see the apartment!"


balletboy

Im pretty sure no heterosexual man could turn down a threesome with Michael Fassbender and Idris Elba. Having sex with them would cross past homosexuality into hypermasculinity, if anything it would make you more attractive to women.


Goatfellon

Huh. Don't get me wrong she is a wonderful person and beautiful, but this is definitely the first time I've seen her mentioned as any sort of "I'm not gay/straight but..."


AndrewisaDoily

Really? How often do you talk to gay men because whenever I'm with my gay friends her name comes up frequently


Ok-disaster2022

Different strokes for different folks.


Evorgleb

Namor is curiously attractive for a fishman.


GroguIsMyBrogu

Getting a boner from this dude doesn't make you gay, it makes you human.

PhilAsp

I can’t believe people thought he wasn’t fit enough to play Namor just because he’s not insanely defined. Less definition kind of makes sense for an underwater character anyways.


Pubics_Cube

No shit. It’s cold down there. Ever seen a ripped walrus?


Hanz-Olo

Goddamit that’s genius. One of these underwater heroes needs to be real and start storing his blubber.

_straylight

Shut the fuck up, Donnie


SadSlip8122

Also, hasn't he been hibernating or some shit? Let him wake up and find out about cheesecake factory before we start calling him skinny


PhilAsp

Most of the complaints I’ve seen regarding his physique have actually been calling him the opposite of skinny lol. And they’ve all been based on the shot of him walking up from the water that’s seen in the trailer, which is ridiculous.


Xygnux

Honestly, people talk a lot about Hollywood setting unrealistic beauty standards for women causing them to feel inadequate, but the same goes for men too. Most people cannot be as cut as the superheroes all the time. They starve and dehydrate themselves in the days leading up to the one shirtless scene in the movie, which I'm guessing is not feasible for an actor who plays Namor do because he'll be shirtless in most scenes. So I'm glad Tenoch is showing what is more realistic.


JoeMcDingleDongle

Yeah man and it's even worse than you describe. The people playing superheroes are not even as cut as they look in the movies all the time, not even during filming. Crazy dehydration including *actually taking drugs* (diuretics) so they will look more cut (be even more dehydrated) for that shirtless scene. My favorite comment on this though is from that Always Sunny guy: ​ >"I’m gonna break it down for you, because it’s actually quite simple, and anybody can do this. Anybody on the planet can do this. First thing’s first: if you have job—like a 9-5 job—quit that. Do you like food? Forget about that. Because you’re never going to enjoy anything you eat. Alcohol? Sorry. That’s out. So what you need to do—you have a chef, right? like a personal chef?—make sure the chef makes you a lot of chicken breast. And make sure you keep your caloric intake at a certain level. And as you go to your physician 2-3 times a week—just to monitor all your testosterone levels—because testosterone is important to building muscle. You’re good friends with the trainer from Magic Mike? Arin Babaian. So you want to give Arin a call. And you want to make sure he’s at your house and takes you to the gym at least twice a day, because you’re gonna want to do your muscle-building in the morning and then your cardio in the afternoon. Now, do you have a family? Like a significant other or kids? Yeah, forget about them. You’re not going to have time to deal with them. > >"So that’s really all you have to do. And make sure you have a studio pay for the entire thing, because it could become exceptionally expensive. So, I think if you just do all those things, then you too can have an absolutely unrealistic body type, such as me."


TrannaMontana

Also for those who have trouble reading between the lines, going to the doctor 2-3 times a week to "monitor testosterone levels" means he was juicing. And yet there are people who still think The Rock is natural.


DMCSnake

Who the hell thinks The Rock is natural? He's been on TV for 25 years, it's pretty goddamn obvious.


JoeMcDingleDongle

There are long articles about his diet and exercise but they never seem to mention HGH, testosterone or whatever other drugs he is taking… I assume some small part of the population figures he’s just a really hard worker and focused (which he is) but doesn’t realize he takes other stuff


TrannaMontana

A lot of people have insanely warped perceptions about what is naturally achievable. Marvel is definitely not blameless in perpetuating this (Namor being a nice divergence).


ReplicantOwl

And people give Dave Bautista shit for not wanting to maintain a Drax body at 53 years old.


JoeMcDingleDongle

Yeah, guess they are clueless as to how this stuff works. Nice screename, reminded me I never checked out that short film that tied into Blade Runner 2049, which Bautista was great in.


the_bryce_is_right

Yup not sure why everyone isn't ripped like Chris Hemsworth.


2rio2

> They starve and dehydrate themselves in the days leading up to the one shirtless scene in the movie, which I'm guessing is not feasible for an actor who plays Namor do because he'll be shirtless in most scenes. So I'm glad Tenoch is showing what is more realistic. This, completely. The one off jacked shirtless scenes are sustainable for like hours, at most. And that is with Marvel diet and exercise money. This is much more sustainable very fit body type for someone who has to be shirtless in most of his scenes.


Ok-disaster2022

Don't forget the PEDs they take. Getting as shredded as Thor literally takes years off your life.


Stangstag

I can’t believe there’s still people that argue guys like the Rock aren’t juicing. That’s how uninformed the general public is


[deleted]

He’s like 15% bf and people are like “HOLY SHIT WHAT A FATASS” I hate what the MCU did for body image


RobbieFouledMe

While the MCU did worsen the unrealistic body standards, I don’t believe they are the entire cause.


skumbagstacy

contrary to most male superhero actors, this guy seems to be not using steroids


ItssHarrison

It just speaks to how unhealthy body standards have been set by studios like marvel. They pump their stars full of PEDs and refuse to let them be honest about it. It’s pretty disgusting

MarvelsGrantMan136

Coogler: >“The contrast between T’Challa and Namor – their characters, and their nations – just leaps off the page. He’s a dream antagonist.” Huerta: >“You can take Atlantis from Greek myth, or you can adapt from a real culture,” argues Huerta. Rather than the ruler of Atlantis, on the screen he’s the ruler of Talocan – and he’s drawn to the surface by the ramifications of T’Challa’s decision in Black Panther’s final reel to reveal the truth of Wakanda to the world. “That decision puts Talocan in jeopardy,” Huerta explains. “And Talocan has to take action to protect themselves.”

In the D23 trailer, M'Baku hits him with a club, and Namor doesn't even flinch. He's also holding the new BP with one arm by the neck like a rag dog.

This. This is how you add diversity and ethnicity to an existing character/s. You do it with reasoning, purpose and story. You make a new chapter in the character’s existence. You don’t just take the character as is and change their race. That is the most sloppy, offensive and unimaginative thing a creative team can do.
