Semper's Stupendous to Infinity and Beyond Everything Marvel Movie/TV Thread

I think a dark horse to take up the mantle is Okoye. From a story standpoint she’s by far the best warrior and most dedicated to Wakanda. From a business standpoint Danai Gurira has the acting chops to carry a franchise.

What I think makes the most sense is Nakia. If I were writing the story, she would have been pregnant at the snap, so her son would be 7ish. She takes the mantle until he is ready. She is also a trained fighter.

Shuri makes the least sense story wise. She’s not really a trained fighter and you lose your “girl in the chair” if she is in the role. From a business sense, you don’t risk a franchise on someone with even public relations questions. There’s too much money at stake. As WB is learning you’re always only a moment away from losing hundreds of millions of dollars.
