Marvel Fans Agree We’ve Found Our Perfect Live-Action Storm

Marvel fans have a new favorite for the role of Storm in the MCU following Lupita Nyong’o’s appearance at a Broadway premiere.

Dressed for Halloween, Nyong’o chose an outfit that left no doubts about her perfect casting for the iconic X-Men character.

The photos were snapped at the debut of “Teeth,” a musical adaptation of the 2007 film of the same name.

For those unfamiliar, it’s best to look up “Teeth 2007 film” during your free time rather than at work. Let’s just say it’s quite the memorable horror story.

The pictures circulated on the subreddit r/marvelstudios, where Nyong’o’s Storm costume received unanimous praise.

Comments ranged from “Okay now we need her as storm, this was her audition” by Suavecito70 to “She would be a perfect storm my god” from scottirltbh.

While Nyong’o is known for her role as Nakia in ‘Black Panther,’ fans shouldn’t hold their breath for her immediate casting as Storm in the current MCU timeline.

However, the multiverse could open doors for such a possibility, perhaps in a project like ‘Avengers: Doomsday.’

Nyong’o’s depiction at the event wasn’t just a hit—it was a compelling showcase that has left fans eagerly imagining what could be if she brought Storm to life in the Marvel universe.
