Chadwick Boseman would have turned 44 on November 29 and Disney honored him in a way that was fit for a Marvel king.
Boseman, who died in August after a private battle with colon cancer, starred as T'Challa/Black Panther in the Marvel superhero franchise.
On Saturday, Disney chairman Bob Iger tweeted to alert that something was coming.
To all fans of #BlackPanther: watch the film on #DisneyPlus late tonight, for a special tribute to someone that was and will always be near and dear to our hearts.

"To all fans of #BlackPanther: watch the film on #DisneyPlus late tonight, for a special tribute to someone that was and will always be near and dear to our hearts," the tweet read.
That turned out to be a new opening credit for the "Black Panther" film currently streaming on Disney+.
The slightly more than 30 second tribute shows clips of Boseman and was shared by Marvel Studios' official Twitter account.
