BLACK PANTHER WAKANDA FOREVER. A first trailer for Black Panther 2 has finally been unveiled at Comic-Con in San Diego.
[Mis à jour le 25 juillet 2022 à 10h22] Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, the second installment in the Marvel franchise, had remained very mysterious for a long time. We had to wait for San Diego Comic-Con to discover a first trailer. The emotion is particularly there, since the film will address the disappearance of T’Challa (Chadwick Boseman, who died of cancer on August 28, 2020), and the consequences of the king’s death on Wakanda. But after the contemplation, the fight will be in order, as evidenced by the many action scenes in this trailer.
The question of Black Panther’s succession is also posed, but the Wakanda Forever trailer does not provide an answer. Shuri, Nakia, M’Baku or Okoye? What is certain is that the superhero will be back, since the Black Panther costume is seen at the very end of the trailer. The feature film is expected in the United States for November 2022. In France, Marvel announces an “upcoming” cinema release, without any date being explained for the moment. If we follow the American calendar, we can hope to discover Black Panther 2 in the coming months.
Synopsis – The sequel to the Marvel movie Black Panther, released in 2018.
Black Panther was released in cinemas in 2018. It will therefore have been necessary to wait four years before discovering a sequel. It must be said that the death of Chadwick Boseman, on August 28, 2020 from colon cancer, not only shocked his fans, but also put an inevitable brake on the production of the film. In the United States, Black Panther 2 is announced for a release in November 2022. The French release date is not yet known. Generally, Marvel films are released in France a few days apart from the United States.
The announcement of the death of Chadwick Boseman August 28, 2020 shocked everyone. The interpreter of Black Panther suffered from colon cancer, which he had hidden from everyone, except his family. He died at age 43. If the news caused grief and amazement, a question inevitably came to mind: how to continue the Black Panther franchise in the cinema without its main actor? The trailer, posted online at San Diego Comic-Con in July 2022, does not answer this question. The mystery still hangs over the estate of Chadwick Boseman.
One of the solutions, acclaimed by many Black Panther fans, would be for Shuri, Black Panther’s sister played by Letita Wright in the first part, to take over from her brother and become the new heroine and queen of Wakanda. This option has the merit of being based on comics and would pay tribute to Chadwick Boseman. According to We got this covered, this idea would indeed be in the minds of Disney and Marvel. But actress Letitia Wright’s anti-vax remarks during the production of the feature film cast discredit on the actress, and could have consequences for the film. Whatever the solution chosen, it will be impossible to forget the tragic loss of the first interpreter of Black Panther in the cinema.
