Black Panther: Wakanda Forever appears to position Namor the Sub-Mariner as the god Kukulkán, but he could actually be a mutant instead. There's a sense that the McU's Phase 4 has principally been about a single concept: expansion. Phase 4 has expanded the franchise in often unexpected and unpredictable directions, adding everything from mutants to supernatural monsters, and from multiversal variants to pantheons of MCU gods.
The trailers for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever seem to suggest Namor, ruler of the underwater kingdom of Talocan, is another god. He's been associated with Kukulkán, the feathered serpent god of many Mesoamerican cultures, which explains the stunning headdress the character has been shown wearing. The idea is a surprising one, given the comic book version of Namor isn't related to the gods at all; rather, he's a human-Atlantean hybrid, and a mutant to boot. But, surprisingly, this may well still be the case.
