VIDEO : Chadwick Boseman Says Marvel Wasn't A Factor For Black Panther

Chadwick Boseman didn't agree to star in 'Black Panther' because it's a Marvel film.

Boseman is reprising his role as T'Challa in Black Panther.

Boseman said the action film appealed to him because it's such a cool story.

Well one, I mean they [Marvel] have a good batting average in terms of successful films and films that people love. And to be specific about this film and this character it's just a good character. It's an interesting character. Because if it was somehow not as good as it is I wouldn't want to do it. Just because it's Marvel it doesn't mean you want to do it. They tend to be offering people stuff that's interesting and good and wanting to push envelopes in certain places.
