Transcript

Hello, I'm Chadwick Boseman.

I'm Lupita Nyong'o.

My name is Michael B. Jordan.

And we're doing a WIRED...

Autocomplete interview.

People Google that?

Okay, I guess so.

Who is Black Panther?

The king and protector of, well kind of...

Fought Captain America historically

throughout Marvel Comic history.

Does Black Panther have super powers?

Yes, even beyond his suit.

Yeah, he does.

Takes a heart-shaped herb,

gives him super strength,

lot of cat-like qualities.

Pretty cool.

Who is stronger, Black Panther or Captain America?

Another great question.

(scoffs) Black Panther.

(laughs)

They're the same, but Black Panther edged

out Captain America, almost every battle that they had

throughout Marvel history.

So, I'm gonna say Black Panther's definitely stronger.

Captain America's shield is made out of Vibranium,

comes from Wakanda, the whole thing.

That's how they're kinda connected.

So yeah, I'll say Black Panther for sure.

[Lupita] Who would win in a fight,

Black Panther or Wolverine?

Black Panther.

[Lupita] I mean...

Technically Wolverine, I think. Maybe?

Only because I know Wolverine would

kill somebody in a heartbeat.

Black Panther, it might take a little bit longer for him

to get there and Wolverine would get the fight

over like real quick.

So I think that's more of a personality thing

rather than ability.

And Wolverine can regenerate, so it would be

pretty difficult to kill him.

I don't know, I'll think about that one.

[Lupita] Does Black Panther kill?

Yeah.

Black Panther can kill when he absolutely has to,

but he would much rather not kill somebody.

[Lupita] Who is Black Panther's enemy?

Black Panther's enemy is Klaw.

Enemy, historically speaking,

that would be me, Erik Killmonger.

[Lupita] Does Chadwick Boseman have siblings?

Yes. You don't get to know how many.

In this show, I'm not telling you anything more than yes.

(laughs)

[Lupita] Where is Chadwick Boseman from?

I'm from Anderson, South Carolina.

Does Chadwick Boseman sing?

Professionally? No.

Around the house? Yes.

That's not true.

You all need to go and see Get on Up.

He sings and he can really sing.

He's a badass at karaoke.

[Together] What high school did Chadwick go to?

I went to TL Hanna High School.

[Lupita] Does Chadwick Boseman do his own stunts?

Yeah, I love doing stunts and I do as much as I can do.

[Lupita] How do I meet Chadwick Boseman?

You can meet me...

Outside.

You can meet me outside.

(laughs)

You can meet me at The Room at 10:30 pm on Thurdays.

I'm always there sitting at table number three.

(laughs)

That's how good an actor he is.

Does Chadwick Boseman dance?

Come on, man, y'all know I dance.

Stop playing, stop playing.

Yes he does.

Stop playing.

I'm an Aquarius. February 9th.

What was Michael B. Jordan's first movie?

Black and White, long time ago.

First real movie, some real speaking roles, Hardball,

Paramount Pictures, Brian Robbins, Keanu Reeves.

It was awesome.

Who is Michael B. Jordan's father?

My father is Michael Jordan. Michael A. Jordan.

Michael B. Jordan does play basketball.

I haven't played ball in a long time, but yeah.

I used to be pretty competitive at basketball.

Did Michael B. Jordan get knocked out while filming Creed?

Wow, these are the top questions, okay.

Not technically knocked out, but I definitely took

a real punch to the face.

It wasn't that fun.
