Despite what happened during WandaVision's nine episodes, fans have gotten themselves into something of a frenzy about the big cameo that's been teased for episode five of The Falcon and The Winter Soldier. All we really know is that it's a noteworthy actor who will be playing someone from the comic books (without setting up a future movie).
During a recent interview with Vanity Fair, Marvel Studios producer Nate Moore was asked about the theories circulating online about Chadwick Boseman potentially having shot one final appearance as Black Panther for the Disney+ series. It does make sense when you stop and think about it, especially given Wakanda's unexpected role in how the story has unfolded.
"No. I can say. That is not going to happen," Moore said, confirming T'Challa will not appear in the series. "I would be honest if it was. Chad's passing is a whole life thing, and I loved the guy as much as the character."
Interestingly, he then added: "I think we have to be very careful and thoughtful about when he appears because he meant so much to a lot of people as much as he meant to us. But yeah, we wouldn't use that as a ‘Come next week; maybe you’ll see Panther!’ We wouldn't, and he's not."
That makes it sound like there may be enough footage for Marvel Studios to do something with Boseman following his tragic death last year, but it remains to be seen what that might be.
As for The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, we'll keep you updated as we learn more about this cameo.
