Well, well, well. It looks as if Maxwell is smitten with Black Panther star Danai Gurira. While at the New York screening for the film, the 44-year-old revealed he had an “obsession” for the actress.

The woman I would want to wine and dine from the film is Danai Gurira, but she might be taken. I used to watch her on ‘The Walking Dead,’ so I do have a bit of an obsession with her — and we share the same barber, by the way, so it could actually work out.”

This revelation comes on the heels of another rumored romance, this time between co-stars Michael B. Jordan and Lupita Nyong’o.

But back to Maxwell. Many black women have long since written the singer off as only dating a certain type of woman (see: racially ambiguous). Most recently he’s been linked to TV personality and host Julissa Bermudez, so this obsession with Gurira is a pleasant surprise.

Also, if you haven’t heard. Black Panther is now the number one movie in the world, smashing records in its first three days.
