‘Captain America: Civil War': Black Panther's Costume, Fight Scene With Cap Revealed

A report has revealed how Black Panther’s costume in “Captain America: Civil War” could look like. It also gave some details about his encounter with Cap, which in the end turned into a scuffle. [Spoiler Alert]

In an exclusive report from JoBlo's Paul Shirley, he revealed that Black Panther’s (Chadwick Boseman) costume will be covered in vibranium, the same material that makes up Cap’s shield. Vibranium is very rich in T’Challa a.k.a. Black Panther’s home nation of Wakanda. It’s the same element that Ultron wanted so much to get his hands on in “Avengers: Age of Ultron.” Aside from his costume, Black Panther will reportedly also have a sleek Panther jet, which Shirley described to be “very ‘Stark-like’ in its technical buildout.”

Just how strong is Black Panther’s costume in “Captain America: Civil War” will be proven when he comes face to face with Steve Rogers. According to Shirley, Cap will battle it out with T’Challa. “In the showdown between Cap and Panther we'll see him scratching Cap's shield easily and his prowess will prove to be a viable threat to Rogers,” he said.

Black Panther and Captain America will reportedly be on opposing sides of the team in the film. In “Captain America: Civil War” the Avengers will be divided into two leadership because of the Superhuman Registration Act. The team will be divided between Tony Stark and Captain America, the latter apparently against the Act, which calls for all superhuman beings to register with the government. According to JoBlo, T’Challa will be siding with Tony Stark. It’s reportedly also speculated that Black Panther will become useful for Stark when it comes to taking down Cap.

Cinema Blend also noted why Captain America and Black Panther could be against each other in “Captain America: Civil War.” It’s speculated that T’Challa will be on a hunt for Steve Rogers’ best friend Bucky Barnes a.k.a. Winter Soldier, because of some offense that he may have committed towards Black Panther back when he was still brainwashed to be an assassin. Steve and Sam Wilson (The Falcon) don’t have ill feelings towards Bucky so it would reportedly make sense for them to protect him from Black Panther.
