Agreed. I think some here are over-estimating the mass audience's attachment to Boseman. Movies do not have to reflect real-life events. They're fictional entertainments. Just because an actor passes, you do not blow up the franchise. Especially one that's barely started with only one stand-alone film and a few cameos.No problem with another actor playing the role, many actors have played Batman and other characters.
I bet if you were to survey a bunch of random common folk, most would not be able to "name the actor who played Black Panther," even with all the press about his passing.
