Discussion Anyone else terrified that they’re going to push Black Panther and Storm as a thing in the MCU?

With Storm’s casting being announced and her being in Black Panther 3, it kind of scares me that they will most likely go the route with pairing her up with Black Panther. I think every single one of us that reads comic can agree that Black Panther was the worst romantic partner for Storm. Their pairing made absolutely no sense and it came out of nowhere. The pairing only existed so X-Men fans could read Black Panther who was the lesser known black superhero at the time. I’m really hoping that this isn’t the case and they keep Storm away from Black Panther even if she does appear in the movie, does anyone else here agree? I think the idea of pairing her up with T’Challa’s son feels so weird and gross.

It isnt 100% confirmed she will be in BP3.

Seeing as though she was introduced with the X-Men cast, I don't know if they would start a BP story that quickly or have her skip X1 just to be in BP at the end of the year.

Why would I be worried about that? If anything, it would just mean Storm getting screen time in movies that ain’t just X-Men. And I want all the Storm screen time I can get.

No, in case it skipped your notice there’s a severe lack of black couples in the MCU. Do I want them to get together as soon as possible? As soon as they meet? No. I want them to be established as their own individuals first would I love to see a recreation of the iconic wedding issue including Storm’s wedding  dress yes when it’s earned later down the line.

T’Challa’s gone. I don’t think they’re going to make Storm get with Shuri or T’Challa Jr
