And yes, you read that right. Dennis will portray Tilda Johnson (aka Nightshade) in the show, while for 'Black Panther' they have cast Nabiyah Be in the same role (though mysteriously the tweet where she made that announcement has since been removed, along with the #BlackPanther-hashtag on her Twitter-profile, but it's been archived here). So either we'll get two Tilda Johnson like we did Cameron Klein (movies) and Cameron Klein (tv), with one or possibly both becoming Nightshade (or neither), or we'll get one of them renamed.

If either one gets renamed, that means that the movies do care about the shows. If the movie one gets renamed, that means that the shows actively have some influence on the creative side. If the show one gets renamed, that means that while the movies (obviously) take priority, they still care about maintaining continuity with the shows.

This'll be an interesting situation to watch unfold.
