Black Panther Villain Confirmed For Avengers: Infinity War


We already know that the Russo Brothers' Avengers: Infinity War boasts the largest gathering of characters in the MCU, and the roster just seems to keep growing. According to IMDb, Black Panther's Winston Duke has been included in the cast list.

Duke had been cast in Black Panther as the comic villain M'Baku a.k.a. Man-Ape, and he will be standing beside Michael B. Jordan's Erik Killmonger. We don't have any details on his exact role in both movies, but I think it's safe to say that he makes it out of Black Panther alive.

I'm making a guess, though, that Man-Ape will make some sort of cameo as a prisoner in Wakanda or maybe he's someone that Thanos makes an example out of. Frank Grillo's role as Crossbones was merely teased in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, but he was instantly killed off in the beginning of Civil War. You'd think that they'd have him return again for future movies.

Besides featuring all of the Avengers, Infinity War is said to feature everybody else in the MCU that we've met including Doctor Strange, Spider-Man, and the Guardians of the Galaxy. It's also been teased that a lot of CGI characters will be introduced in the movie, but we don't exactly have an idea on who they are.

Black Panther hits theaters Feb. 16, 2018, and Avengers: Infinity War comes out May 4 of the same year.
