When you look at the big picture when it comes to Hollywood, it is abundantly clear that the majority of movie sequels wind up being wildly disappointing. In fact, there have been some movie sequels, prequels, and reboots that were so disappointing to audiences that they severely tarnished the perception of the film they were spawned from.

As everyone who pays even the slightest bit of attention to Hollywood should already know, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has become an absolute powerhouse with fans and critics alike. With that in mind, whenever it is announced that an MCU movie is set to receive a sequel, most of the franchise’s loyal fans still feel extremely excited.

When it was initially announced that plans for Black Panther II were in the works, movie fans all over the world were overjoyed. Of course, when the star of the original film, passed away, film fans had no idea how to feel about the prospect of a Black Panther film without Chadwick Boseman in the titular role. Even still, that doesn’t mean that people aren’t paying close attention to every bit of potential news that comes out about the upcoming film. For example, some attentive MCU fans have found evidence that points to Rihanna potentially starring in Black Panther II and they are very excited about that prospect.

Singing Superstar

In the year 2005, some of the hottest songs around were released by artists like Mario, Ciara, The Pussycat Dolls, Lifehouse, and Fall Out Boy. While all of those artists are no longer relevant, Rihanna rose to fame that year and she has managed to remain among the most popular performers in the world ever since then.

Movie Of The Year

In the year 2018, there was a slew of high grossing films that came out and took over at the box office. For example, Avengers: Infinity War, Incredibles 2, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, Deadpool 2, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle, and Venom all came out in 2018 and did huge business. Despite all of those blockbuster movies, it could easily be argued that Black Panther was the movie of 2018.

On top of that, Black Panther was nominated for seven Oscars, including Best Picture, and it won three of them. Finally and most importantly, Black Panther was almost universally loved among moviegoers and it meant the world to legions of viewers.

Drawing Conclusions

Even though Google is one of the most commonly viewed websites in the world, there are a lot of people who know nothing about how it works. For that reason, some people think that google’s top search results are inherently accurate and have been extensively fact-checked by the powerful website. In reality, Google’s search engine scours the internet looking for websites that contain certain keywords. From there, they take the websites that have been found and rank them based on things like how many times the keywords appear on the page.

Given all of that information, it easily could mean nothing that as of the time of this writing, if you search Black Panther 2 cast on google one of the top names that comes back is Rihanna. Additionally, it should be noted that a few hours from the time of this writing, something could change and Rihanna’s name could disappear from the search results.

Even though logically speaking, it makes perfect sense to not read much into the current search results for Black Panther 2 cast, it also is pretty hard not to. After all, it seems very strange that Rihanna would be included in the search results. On top of that, given how powerful google is in this day and age, it certainly seems possible that the company could have an inside scoop about Rihanna joining the cast of Black Panther II.

If it turns out that Rihanna doesn’t join Black Panther II’s cast, that will be somewhat disappointing at this point as she radiates so much inner strength that she seems like a great fit for Wakanda. On the other hand, Ryan Coogler is such a wonderful film director that it seems silly to question his vision for Black Panther II. In fact, Coogler is so talented that people have hope in his ability to move forward with a Black Panther sequel without Chadwick Boseman involved.
