BLACK PANTHER Will Delve Into An Unexpected Area Of T'Challa's Past In 1990s America
With Black Panther set to start shooting in Atlanta any day now, some intriguing new details have been revealed which confirm that we're paying a visit to a key moment in the Wakandan King's past...
After making his debut in Captain America: Civil War last year, Chadwick Boseman's Black Panther will receive his own solo outing in a star-studded movie set to be released next year. Shooting begins in Atlanta soon, and while we obviously already know how T'Challa took on that mantle, the film will delve even further into his past. That's confirmed in a very interesting report from the East Bay Times.
Apparently, the Oakland, California-based AC Transit public transportation agency has given Marvel Studios permission to use its 1990s era logo in Black Panther. The newspaper goes on to mention that it's going to be used in a flashback to the time T'Challa spent in Saint Mary's College High School.
That's obviously going to lead to the young price boarding an AC Transit bus, and fans of the source material will no doubt already be well aware that T'Challa actually travelled to the United States under the alias Luke Charles. Black Panther delving into that part of the character's life is very interesting, and with production taking place in Atlanta, Marvel will hire a vintage bus and place the logo on it.
