Black Panther 2: Wakanda Forever is the final film that Marvel is ending their year with. So naturally we were expecting there is a lot of buzz around the filming given the special circumstances of the film as well. We got our first trailer of the film and what a trailer it was! The trailer confirmed a lot of things we were suspecting. We official know that T’Challa is dead. The film would start from that point as Wakanda has no ruler. We also got our first glimpse at Namor and Dominique Thorne’s Ironheart. However, along with that we got the first hint at the new Black Panther. The emotional and amazing trailer ends with a brief shot of a new person in the Black Panther suit. In the background, the figure that is getting up from the ground looks like Namor.
So, who is the new Black Panther? Well, we still don’t know. Popular candidates include Shuri, Killmonger, Nakia and M’Baku. However, the recent trailer does suggest that Shuri is going to take on the mantle but that may be a misdirection. The promotions for the film have kicked in now that there are only 2 weeks left for its release. Amidst all that Marvel has not forgotten a tradition that the first Black Panther started. To put the final nail in the coffin, Marvel has announced a new album featuring Rihanna which will be released in the upcoming days.
