[[WMG: T'Challa will [[spoiler:give Steve a new shield while he's in Wakanda.]]]]
We saw at the end that [[spoiler:Steve left his Cap shield behind when he went on the run: it's government property after all]]. Then in the mid-credits scene we see that [[spoiler:Steve is now in Wakanda talking with Black Panther — and Wakanda is of course the world's source of vibranium]]. Perhaps Black Panther will [[spoiler:give Steve a replacement shield, especially if Steve has abandoned the Captain America mantle.]]

[[WMG: The plot of ''Black Panther'' will be [[spoiler: people coming for the frozen Bucky as Steve warned T'Challa that they would]]]]
This will lead to the inevitable and awesome team up between Black Panther and [[spoiler:Bucky.]] Also, since Klaue is the villain, he and [[spoiler: Bucky will make arm jokes.]]

** Confirmed - Michael B. Jordan is playing Killmonger.



In a similar vein to Film/XMenApocalypse, during a battle with the supporting villains, T'Challa(or a supporting character) will release Barnes, who(equipped with a new Vibranium arm) will kill the supporting villains before being returned to cryo-stasis.

cryo-stasis.

[[WMG: Alternately, Bucky will serve a similar function as Ross in the comics - specifically an AudienceSurrogate as well as {{Deuteragonist}}]]
Bucky will work alongside T'Challa by providing valuable intelligence about Hydra's past activities (as well as backing T'Challa up in combat). Along the way, he'll learn from T'Challa and the supporting cast about Wakanda and its technology.

Since ''Black Panther'' is averting the WhiteMaleLead trope, it would be interesting to ''invert'' it as well.

reverse the usual "white protagonist, black deuteragonist" formula. Have Ross be the AudienceSurrogate to learn about the history of Wakanda and T'Challa's equipment.

Although Zemo killed T'Challa's father in ''Civil War'', we'll find out that Klaue (as a known arms dealer) was the one who supplied him with the bomb. This will not only help elevate Klaue to archenemy status, it will also tie him to Zemo for a potential Masters of Evil role later on.

[[WMG: Klaw won't be the only villain.]]
Maybe another one?

[[WMG: T'Challa won't have a love interest.]]
He has too much to worry about, being a royal and superhero at the same time for that stuff. At least during this film anyway...

[[WMG: Man-Ape will appear as M'Baku.]]
He'll be depicted as being associated with the MCU's version/adaptation of the White Gorilla Cult, who T'Challa views as future enemies.

[[WMG: Stan Lee will cameo as...]]
* the older companion of some boneheaded, rich American college boys who try and trespass on sacred Wakandan territory before being chased off by guards. Stan's line: "Run true believers, but don't forget me!"
* The father of Martin Freeman's Everett K. Ross, who clearly doesn't get why his son would be going to Africa, which he just calls "Jungle Place".
