Sometimes hero, sometimes anti-hero and sometimes pure villain, Namor the Sub-Mariner isn’t just one of Marvel’s most complicated characters. He is also his first superhero. Created in 1939, Namor quickly made a strong impression thanks to his complicated backstory, dramatic eyebrows, and super-short green swimming trunks.
And now Namor is finally joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, where he’ll be played by Narcos’ Tenoch Huerta. We got our first look at the Namor in the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever trailer that was released at Comic-Con, so let’s learn all about the passionate gamer known as the Sub-Mariner and why he’s so much more than Marvel’s answer to Aquaman.
