Chadwick Boseman debuted as Prince T'Challa earlier in the year, and is already gearing up to star as the character in the Black Panther solo movie.

The film feels like a landmark moment in cinema – a blockbuster action movie starring some of the most talented up-and-coming young black actors working today – but Boseman admitted that he can't think about that while he's working.

"Only at certain moments does it feel like it's historic," he told Digital Spy. "I think I felt it when we were on the stage together at Comic-Con when all the other actors came out, and [director Ryan Coogler] was there, and [Marvel Studios president Kevin] Feige was there. I felt it at that moment.

"But on a day-to-day basis I can't think about how big it is. I have to think about what I have to do today to be ready for the moment when the cameras roll. And when the camera rolls, I'm just thinking about the scene I'm doing.

"I'm not thinking about what I'm going to do tomorrow. I have to take it one step at a time. It's just another movie, is the answer [laughs]."

Boseman showed up in Captain America: Civil War as Marvel's best known black superhero, the king and genius scientist (of course!) of the fictional, technologically advanced Africa nation of Wakanda.

And he was on the side of Tony Stark (sort of).
