I actually think they could go for the idea of “breaking the mold”. Reforms so it’s not necessary trial by combat or being royal blood to be the Black Panther. Which were points somewhat criticized when the movie came out.
But I still think it’d be way too soon for a change and a successor character.
That would be like killing off Captain America and replacing him for Bucky or Falcon (or in the case of Killmonger, for Red Skull) right after The Avengers.
Thats why best solution is just a cast change. Im sure Chadwicks family will be understanding, it would be a double honour for whoever plays Tchalla
Yeah, while I get why it wasn’t disclosed, this is gonna create a new standard in contracts and disclosures.
It could be a slippery slope if Studios start asking for medical records before giving someone a role.
I agree. However on their side they are “protecting” their investment. That’ll be something that the unions will have to work out.
It’s possible Marvel decides this is just an unfortunate twist of fate, and they’re big enough that they can still press on doing business as usual, no matter what the BP plan is from now on. Maybe this doesn’t put them or other studios in “gotta protect my investment” mode.
But to be frank, head honchos at Marvel have to be feeling a little bit burned that they didn’t know. I don’t know how much planning in terms of BP and BP crossovers went down the toilet at this news, and what contingency plans (if any) were in place.
I’m sure that Labcorp and Disney are about to form a new partnership.
Honestly they recorded chadwick and Michael for a what if marvel cartoon
That can be used as cannon if fiege wanted
I mean deepfake tech is strong
Who knows what kind of alt endings they filmed for black panther 1 and how many takes they have that can be used and retconned.
And well yeah deepfakes…
Cool now make her like super christian korean
I want that on tv
Like make her evolve from good girl to abg like quick
Guess that brings us to two possibilities for that movie being spider Gwen or spider woman. I refuse to believe it’s madam web.
Actors die all the time, the new Chekoff died in a car accident. Same thing with Paul in Fast n Furious series.
They deepfaked with paul walker’s brother who looks like him
You add Carrie Fischer and that comprises the amount of deaths in the middle of framchises recently. That shit is super rare. Hell before that it was the original dumbledore.
Rarely ever do you get a leading role having its main actor die. If there are, pretty sure they took franchises down with them.
They literally created the comics version of Shuri to take over for T’Challa for a spell and have a female BP. She technically is the most likely replacement but they could also go with the ‘Casper’ Cole route and have some brother find the suit and take the mantle to fight street crime. But I doubt people be ok with that so soon.
Bring Erik back, he was a far more interesting character.
Although saying that, I do like the idea that Magegg pitched a episodic show showing Shuri growing into the leading role otherwise I just can’t buy her as BP
We close to white black panther
Grey Panther?
Naw White Panther is in the Ultimate Universe and was a Loeb made travesty.
I am talking light skinned Panther who just passes for white.
