The first trailer of the turbo-charged Captain America: Civil War was released a few weeks ago and Black Panther is part of the action. Chadwick Boseman who is playing as Black Panther provides new details about his costume and some other elements of the movie.
Chadwick Boseman revealed in an interview with Entertainment Weekly that his Black Panther's mask has limited his vision, more specifically his peripheral vision. Though he mentioned that he was able to "see enough" to film his scenes.
He added, "As far as the actual suit is concerned, there's a lot of comfort in the shoes and the boots, and that's about the only part I did enjoy. That being said, the boots are the hardest part to get on, but after you get them on, you're like, 'OK, that feels good.'
The actor also revealed that he have other weapons that comes out and that he definitely has claws. Vibranium was also mentioned during the interview and how dynamic it is and how it can change how it's used. Apart from this, the actor did not reveal other detail with regard to Black Panther's costume.
The actor also said that fans should not expect a wise-cracking hero and that Black Panther is not the life of the party. He also told Entertainment Weekly that this Black Panther is in his younger years and so that makes him more fallible than what people read in the comics - but for reasons that are logical.
Now regarding where he leans over the superhero-registering Sokovia Accords which is resisted by Steve "Captain America" Rogers (Chris Evans) and backed by Tony "Iron Man" Starks, the actor said that his character is more of a neutral character, though there will be some instances that looks like he is leaning more towards Iron Man.
The Black Panther suit and character will definitely pack some punch in Captain America: Civil War and fans all over the world are very excited with this new addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Are you looking forward for Black Panther's debut? Let us know what you think.
