With Black Panther, Michael B. Jordan is pumped to join the Marvel universe.
“I’m super excited, especially to put a different spin on it,” the actor tells The Hollywood Reporter at Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic. “I’m looking forward to working with Ryan [Coogler] once again. It’s gonna be a good time.”
Until then, Jordan — wearing an Etro shirt and pants — is ready to watch his very first Polo match at the ninth-annual summer event, held Saturday at Liberty State Park. Before heading into the sunny and bubbly garden party with Rose Byrne, Bobby Cannavale, Andrew Rannells, Elizabeth Olsen and Jamie-Lynn Sigler, among others, Jordan is game to play along with a rapid fire round of Rambling Reporter’s random interrogation.
