The first Black Panther movie was a significant success for Marvel studies. The movie represented black and African people well, showcasing their culture and creativity. Black Panther crossed $1 Billion at the box office. As per the insider sources, Daniel Kaluuya who played W’Kabi will not return for the sequel.
The reason for this is rumored to be the schedule conflicts since Daniel Kaluuya was doing Jordon Peele’s NOPE simultaneously. Daniel Kaluuya was nominated for Oscars for his role in the horror thriller GET OUT directed by Jorden Peele. It was released in 2017 and was a blockbuster.
NOPE is releasing on 22nd July and Daniel is currently only focusing on this movie. Nope looks like a Sci-fi thriller and stars Keke Palmer and Steven Yeun in lead roles along with Daniel Kaluuya.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’s entire shoot is wrapped and is scheduled to release on 11th November 2022. It is said that the movie will honor and respect the death of our T’Challa aka Chadwick Boseman. Letitia Wright, Martin Fewwman, Danai Gurira, Lupita Nyong’o, and Angela Bassett will be returning in the sequel.
If we believe the insider sources, we might even get to see Riri Williams in this movie which is almost confirmed due to leaks.
