Problem - you have a Marvel comic superhero character and want to put him
into a feature, but can't justify the expense of a stand-alone franchise.

Solution - shove him into a "Fantastic Four" sequel. Talking with The Los
Angeles Times, Director Tim Story revealed his motivations for the upcoming
sequel "Fantastic Four: The Rise of the Silver Surfer" - and in doing so
hinted at bringing in another character in a future sequel that has been
struggling (and failing so far) to get a film of his own.

"I've got to tell you, to get the 'Fantastic Four' and turn it into a
franchise, the first thing I thought was, 'Will I get the Silver Surfer'? Or
someone like [the superhero] Black Panther, who was introduced in their
book, get Djimon Hounsou and go do it?' But there are so many other great
villains and stories - I feel like I hit the jackpot" says Story.

The Black Panther was the first modern African-American superhero. Created
in 1966, he uses a heart-shaped herb that grants the person who consumes it
enhanced strength, agility, and perception.
