Is there a second Black Panther in the ‘Wakanda Forever’ trailer?

Everyone is focused on a big new product announcement black panther at the end of the latest Wakanda Forever Trailers they may have missed a glimpse of another Black Panther in the first half of the clip.

This is a freeze frame (certainly a kind of blurry frame).

A Twitter user noticed the panther by slowing the trailer down to 0.25. They’re pretty sure it’s a “different” Black Panther than the one at the end of the trailer.
