America: Civil War, in which Boseman was seen as Black Panther for the first time, he had a lot of prep to do. He worked with a trainer, a strength and conditioning coach - and a dialect coach. The idea of the character having an African accent - Xhosa, specifically was briefly a point of contention between him and Marvel. "They felt that it was maybe too much for an audience to take," Boseman acknowledges. "I felt the exact opposite - like, if I speak with a British accent, what's gonna happen when I go home?" He continues, "It felt to me like a deal-breaker," adding, "I was like, 'No, this is such an important factor that if we lose this right now, what else are we gonna throw away for the sake of making people feel comfortable?" This time, unlike 15 years earlier with All My Children, Boseman spoke up for what was important to him
