I remember hearing from someone in my family back in July that they were going to make Shuri Black Panther. At the time I was like "Why would they do that, it doesn't make sense. He should be Black Panther for a while at least cause he just got started in the universe." I just remembered that conversation today, so now if that was true it makes me wonder if Marvel knew he was sick and had a backup plan. For me personally, I would prefer a recast instead of someone else becoming Black Panther cause his character is a huge deal and just got started in the MCU. I feel we should still get his story and arc like we did with other characters like Iron Man, Cap, Thor, Hulk, Black Widow, etc. I feel it would be worse if they just discarded Black Panther this quickly after his huge impact. No matter what they do it will be tough to watch regardless cause he was so great as T'Challa. This just sucks immensely on so many levels, still doesn't feel real.
