It'll be dope if they were able to use Doctor Strange to bring in Deadpool or The X Men.

Loved Homecoming. Didn't find the humor corny like in some other Marvel movies.
A character Coogler loved reading about as a kid is now on pace to get his own solo movie set in the MCU and the Creed director is a large reason why.
The best part of it all? Coogler told EW that after he was hired to write and direct one of Marvel’s latest entries, he and his wife went back to visit the same comic store he found his first Black Panther comic and just like that, the most recent Black Panther run remained in the same exact spot.

Marvel's Black Panther Villain M'Baku Will Not Use 'Man-Ape' Name
Marvel's Black Panther has shot to the top echelon of most-anticipated upcoming comic book movies, thanks in large part to a slick and stylish first trailer, which has opened up the nation of Wakanda to a world of viewers who may never have experienced it before.
Thanks to a recent magazine feature, we are learning (and seeing) more and more of what director Ryan Coogler has done with Black Panther - and now we know a bit more about one of the several Marvel Comics villains that appear in the film!
According to EW's feature, Marvel fans hoping to see the character of "Man-Ape" onscreen in the live-action film, need to re-align their expectations. The character of M'Baku (played by Person of Interest star Winston Duke) will NOT be going by his colorful (read: silly) comic book alter-ego name in the film.
According to Black Panther executive producer Nate Moore, "We don't call him Man-Ape, We do call him M'Baku."
As with everything surrounding Black Panther (even the hero's name / the movie's title), there is a cultural sensitivity component that must be considered. As Moore acknowledges:
“Having a black character dress up as an ape, I think there’s a lot of racial implications that don’t sit well, if done wrong."
This is not the first time that Marvel has had to circumvent this type of problem: Iron Man 3 had to find a way to do a version of The Mandarin that wouldn't offend as a horrible Asian stereotype; and Doctor Strange caught flack for changing "The Ancient One" to avoid a similarly loaded stereotype.
It just goes to show: for all the great creative ideas and characters Marvel has put out, a lot of them date back to a time when cultural awareness and sensitivity was not nearly as prevalent as it is today.
As for how M'Baku fits into Black Panther's storyline? Moore says:
“You learn that M’Baku is essentially the head of the religious minority in Wakanda and we thought that was interesting. Wakanda is not a monolithic place. They have a lot of different factions...the idea that they [M'Baku's mountain tribe] worship the gorilla gods is interesting because it’s a movie about the Black Panther who, himself, is a sort of deity in his own right.
In M’Baku’s worldview, T’Chaka made a huge mistake going to the U.N. 'We should never engage with the outside world. That’s a terrible mistake. And if his son is anything like his father, I don’t support him being on the throne.'”

Disney’s D23 Fan Expo kicks off tomorrow, where they’ll show off new content from their upcoming movies including ones from Marvel and Star Wars.
DailySuperHero got in a little early and snapped a photo of a Thanos statue at the Marvel Studios booth. This is definitely our best look yet at the villain from Avengers: Infinity War.
