6. Black Panther Might Appear
Like Doctor Strange, Black Panther is not expected to appear in Age of Ultron, with Chadwick Boseman's name notably absent from any cast lists or movie posters. That being said, a lot of the movie is set to take place in Wakanda - the fictional country of both the hero's origin and rule - so it does seem a little bizarre that he wouldn't at least acknowledge that that was the case. With that in mind, surely he will at least appear in either the mid-credits or post-credits scene - perhaps overseeing any damage or clean-up operation after any battles that might have taken place in his homeland. His scheduled first appearance is set to be in Captain America: Civil War, but it seems a little bit odd to throw him into the mix during such a big event without introducing him to audiences briefly first (think Hawkeye's cameo in Thor coming prior to his full debut in the Avengers movie) and Avengers: Age of Ultron seems like a great time to do that, which would certainly surprise a few people (but, then again, why else would his casting have been publicly announced as far back as October 2014?).
