Had Black Panther on my list but was worried by the backlash over Letitia Wright. Also, continuing the project after Chadwick Boseman died might leave a bad taste in the mouths of some.

My only concern with taking it at #4 was the potential it had to get delayed (it just wrapped in late March after production shut down for a couple of months to allow Letita Wright to recover from an injury she sustained doing a stunt). I have complete confidence in Ryan Coogler's ability to make something that honors Chadwick's memory and feel like there's a lot of people out there that will want to pay their respects to him and T'Challa.

I think that's a great call, Tranny. I might have picked Thor given that the GOTG is in it, but I think it'll pan out for you.

Ryan Coogler is brilliant - total confidence in him. I'm hoping that Jurassic World - Endgame is as big in the US as I think it will be worldwide

That was my assumption. Although he could be betting on a date change like people have in the past for stuff like the Avengers
