Mackie’s team had been campaigning directly to Marvel since “Iron Man” blasted off in 2008.“We would call and write letters after ‘The Hurt Locker,’ saying we would love to be a part of the Marvel Universe,” says Mackie, who pitched another hero, the Black Panther."I thought it was a no-brainer for there to be a black superhero movie in the time of superhero movies.
