In the immediate future - presumably going into the next Avengers movies - Shuri will likely retain the Black Panther mantle.
The introduction of the child appears to be a clever way to deal with Boseman's absence in the MCU. It's hard not to speculate that the young Prince T'Challa will eventually grow up to be Black Panther himself. It's not often a movie introduces a replacement for its lead character and then a potential replacement for the replacement. With this reveal, a movie that already served as an emotional tribute to Boseman ends with a hopeful symbol of his legacy. But it's explained that T'Challa wanted to keep him hidden so he could grow up without the pressures of the throne, and he prepared Nakia and his son for his death. The boy's Haitian name is Toussaint, but in Wakandan, his name is … Prince T'Challa.īoseman's T'Challa disappeared for five years during "The Blip," the time after Thanos' snap, so we can presume this child was conceived before that. But then Nakia introduces Shuri to a young boy: Her secret son with T'Challa. Finally ready to let go of her brother, Shuri burns her funeral garbs at the beach. Shuri travels to Haiti, where T'Challa's love interest, Nakia (Lupita Nyong'o), has been working at a school. Story continues What happens in Wakanda Forever's credits scene? After all, in Captain America: Civil War, T'Challa was the Black Panther while his father, T'Chaka, was king. It's a way for the franchise to divide up duties and give Duke a major role in the future, since the Black Panther and the king of Wakanda don't necessarily need to be the same person. The implication appears to be that going forward, M'Baku will rule as king of Wakanda, while Shuri will still be Black Panther, and he's presumably seeking the throne with her permission. In his final scene, M'Baku (Winston Duke) announces during a coronation ceremony at the Warrior Falls that the Black Panther, Shuri, won't be coming - and he intends to "challenge for the throne." What's going on with M'Baku at the waterfall? After he woke up, she still kept the mantle for some time. In a 2009 comic storyline, T'Challa ends up in a coma after being attacked by Doctor Doom, so Shuri became Black Panther. That means Shuri is now positioned to lead the franchise, at least for the time being - a choice that may prove to be controversial after Wright came under fire for tweeting an anti-vaccine video in 2020 and was reported to have espoused anti-vaccine views on set (Wright has denied those reports).īut there is precedence for this move in the comics, where Shuri also took over as Black Panther, though the circumstances were different.
