Marvel Studios released the first look at the highly anticipated Black Panther: Wakanda Forever at their Hall H panel during San Diego Comic-Con. In a trailer for the film, fans got a glimpse at the new titular hero, but their identity was still hidden. But recently leaked merchandise for the film has seemingly confirmed who is under the mask.

The leak comes in the form of new LEGO sets for the film. They feature not only a first look at the new Black Panther but also a glimpse of Namor, Nakia, and Riri Williams as Ironheart.

Based on the leaked toys, it appears that it is, in fact, Shuri in the new suit. It was long theorized this was the case, but it seems now it has finally been confirmed.

The film features returning stars Nyong’o, Danai Gurira, Martin Freeman, Letitia Wright, Winston Duke, and Angela Bassett. It is also set to feature the MCU debut of Thorne as Riri Williams, who will take on the identity of Ironheart.
