Since the announcement that Black Panther would be joining the ranks of the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Captain America: Civil War, it was presumed that we would be taking a trip to Wakanda for his introduction.
Well, a casting call over at Tammy Smith Casting (via CBM) is calling out for “African Men & Women” between the ages of 18-75 with “casual looks or ethnic wardrobe”. However that last part is a plus, not mandatory.
This has cast out speculation that Captain America: Civil War will indeed have a scene or two in Wakanda, the home country of T’Challa aka Black Panther.
The casting call is also looking for “Upscale Men and Women”, “Military Men”, “Southeast Asian Men & Women” and “College Students”. Could the last ones be for the introduction of Peter Parker/Spider-Man, who is likely to be a teen in the upcoming movie?
