A new trailer for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever has just been released.

The new trailer gave a glimpse of the new costume of Black Panther, which seems to have been worn by a woman in the trailer. Here’s everything we need to know about the sequel of Black Panther.

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever

The movie has been directed by Ryan Coogler and produced by Kevin Feige and Nate Moore.

Plot

The movie ventures back to the kingdom of Wakanda where a new threat emerges. The trailer and poster of the action-packed feature film span the hidden undersea nation called Talokan. The trailer opens with Wakanda shown to be observing T’Challa’s funeral as his likeness watches on from a mural.

We also see a young Namor painting a wall. A voice over says, “Only the most broken people can be great leaders”. The action then shifts into high gear as Namor takes his throne and with a thump of his staff, declares war on the people on the surface. We see his Talocan warriors coming out on the surface, declaring an open war. M’Baku then highlights just how powerful Namor is as he informs his people don’t call him general or king but the ‘feather-serpent God’.

A montage of action sequences follow before we see the dangerous Namor coming face to face with Wakanda’s Queen Mother Ramonda as he brings the war to Wakanda, and we see the magnificent kingdom in ruins. A brief glimpse shows Dominique Thorne as the newest MCU hero Ironheart, before the trailer closes on a powerful note, showing–for the first time–MCU’s new Black Panther.

Cast

The cast for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever includes Lupita Nyong’o, Danai Gurira, Florence Kasumba, Martin Freeman, Letitia Wright, Winston Duke, Angela Bassett, Tenoch Huerta, Michaela Coel, and Dominique Thorne.

Release date

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever opens in theatres on November 11, 2022. The film was previously scheduled for May 6, 2022, and later to July 8, 2022, before ultimately being slated for its current November release date. Due to the sudden and unexpected passing of Chadwick Boseman, the movie had to be reworked, which delayed production.

Recasting of T’Challa

Marvel Studios will not be casting T’Challa in the Black Panther sequel and social media users are protesting over it:

#BlackPantherWakandaForever feels so empty to me. A blockbuster Black Panther sequel without its titular character T’Challa. I will support this movie but I hold out hope that T’Challa returns in the post credit scene or in Secret Wars. T’Challa is an icon #RecastTChalla pic.twitter.com/yzbxZKMjg1

Charlie Cox admitted that the #SaveDaredevil campaign helped bring Daredevil into the MCU sooner than later. The #SaveTChalla #RecastTChalla campaign is hoping to do the same for T’Challa https://t.co/da304yzN7I

I understand why Disney did not #RecastTchalla for #BlackPantherWakandaForever.
However I DON’T understand why they feel T’challa should be killed off

Paul Walker meant so much to the cast of Fast & Furious, they kept his character alive. Why not the same with T’challa? pic.twitter.com/st0smoPsDJ

Superman is the “first” hero, Batman represents what a hero could be, WonderWoman broke up the boys club & Spidey is the relatable hero.
T’Challa aka BlackPanther’s debut was about breaking racial stereotypes of WHO can be a hero.
