The Dora Milaje are a team of women that serve as warriors and bodyguards in Wakanda in Black Panther (2018). Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and Marvel Comic fans can find the Dora Milaje in Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure.
Francis Dominic, a Disney social media influencer, recently visited Avengers Campus and watched Warriors of Wakanda: The Disciplines of the Dora Milaje. He was excited when he noticed a plus size warrior and shared a video from the Disney Park on TikTok:

“She is one of the most powerful women I know,” @officialcourtneyanne said. “Seriously stunning!”
The video made some fans pine for Black Panther and other Marvel characters at Walt Disney World Resort. @_milleniumfalcon wrote:
I’m so jealous that Disneyland gets to have Avengers campus 😭 If WDW had it I would be there every single day.
This specific member of the Dora Milaje has been performing at Disneyland Resort for months, according to one of our reporters who shared photos from a late 2021 visit to Avengers Campus.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever will premiere on November 11, 2022, following Namor (Tenoch Huerta), Shuri (Letitia Wright), and other characters from the first film. To honor Chadwick Boseman, the role of T’Challa won’t be recast or digitally added to the film.
