When it comes to Danai Gurira’s contribution to the Marvel Universe, thanks to Black Panther, y’all better put some respek’ on her name…or just make sure you add her name.
This is a lesson that Marvel had to learn when they left the Walking Dead star’s name off the top billing of their newest poster for the upcoming film Avengers: Endgame. They instead, added her name the bottom, where you need a magnifying glass to see it.
General Okoye deserves better than that.

However, after Black Twitter read them for the filth, hours later they fixed their mistake.
“She should have been up there all this time. Check out the official Marvel Studios’ #AvengersEndgame poster. @DanaiGurira #WakandaForever,” they tweeted on Thursday.
But really the damage had been done and folks had a lot to say about once again a movie studio overlooking Black talent.
