And of course, most important, Chiwetel is a bad ass, charismatic actor all around.
That's not to take anything away from Boseman. I'm honestly not too familiar with him (outside of the praise he got for 42 and Get On Up). So how well he'll sound, act, match wits, etc etc.. :shrug: but i'm going to be optimistic going into Civil War and will just see from there.
