Black Panther Getting An Early Intro?

The news that Black Panther will be part of the MCU Phase Three was welcomed here with applause. Your humble narrator has always liked the adventures of T'Challa, ruler of Wakanda (don't bother looking for it on a map). It is also nice to see Marvel continuing down the path set by Guardians of the Galaxy and showcasing characters who are not "A-Listers."

The casting of Chadwick Boseman doesn't do much for me; I've haven't seen any of the movies he has been in. I probably caught him on TV - he was in an episode of Fringe - but don't recall seeing him. He did drop an interesting tidbit in a recent interview. While it was known that the character was going to be in the next Captain America movie, Boseman mentions that he will be in "movies" before Black Panther. Could we get a post-credit teaser in Age of Ultron? Will BP show up in one of the other Marvel films before his stand alone movie? We do have Doctor Strange, Guardians of the Galaxy 2, and Thor: Ragnarok all hitting screens in the next couple of years. While I have a hard time picturing a Guardians cross-over, both Doc Strange and Thor are possibilities.

Anyway, every decision I hear coming out of Marvel seems to be a good one, at least when it comes to their movies. You can check out more on this story at Jo Blo.
