“It seems too early to recast,” Feige said. “Stan Lee has always said that Marvel represents the world outside your window. And we talked about how, as extraordinary and magical as our characters and stories, there’s a human element and that’s involved in everything we do. The world is still processing Chad’s loss. And Ryan poured that into the story.”

It restored a sense of hope to me when I created it, and I think we’ve expanded the world of Wakanda in a way that will wow everyone – not just Wakanda, but the ‘Black Panther’ world.

Wakanda Forever is about POC solidarity and violence against the oppressor and that’s why it’s the best Marvel movie of all time. https://t.co/CDmwiYgc5O

Black Panther Wakanda Forever is a beautiful and heartfelt tribute to Chadwick and T’Challa.
The film is an emotional journey through the pain of the characters, the cast, the filmmaker, and the fans.
It’s by far the most poignant and meaningful MCU movie to date. #WakandaForever pic.twitter.com/Mp4nvCO1nO
