- Replacing Chadwick Boseman as King T'Challa/Black Panther will be a difficult task for Marvel, and the studio has yet to announce how it will move forward with Black Panther 2.
- The fans of the actor have already voiced their desires online, urging Disney not to recast T'Challa, and have a different actor replace Boseman. The easiest way out would be for Marvel to pass the Black Panther mantle to Shuri, which is what happens in the comics.
- Marvel would still have to explain the disappearance of T'Challa.
- Here we explain how a heroic death of the king while wearing the Black Panther armor one last time could work and why Marvel should film a post-credits scene to bring closure to his story.
Chadwick Boseman passed away three weeks ago after a secret battle with cancer, and his untimely death shocked the entire world. It wasn't just the millions of Marvel fans who loved Boseman as Black Panther in the MCU who were shocked by the news. Reports that followed indicated that Disney and Marvel did not know the actor was battling the terrible illness as he was shooting his scenes for the MCU films.
We learned that Boseman was confident he would overcome the medical difficulties and hoped he would be ready to start preparing for the Black Panther sequel that has already been announced. The movie isn't included in the fourth phase of MCU films, but it should premiere at some point in 2022 — assuming the coronavirus pandemic doesn't delay production, and assuming Disney figures out how to move forward.
Disney and Marvel have yet to say how they plan to move forward with Black Panther 2. But it's clear they'll have to prepare to replace the actor with someone else and go forward with the film. A previous report also said that Boseman was to appear in other Marvel crossovers, so his death has broader implications for the MCU. Fans already know who should be the next Black Panther, with plenty of them taking to social media to express their feelings. Some have even started online petitions urging Disney not to recast the role. Instead, Disney should pass on the Black Panther mantle to a different member of Wakanda's royal family or a different tribe leader.
