‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’ – Footage From Marvel Sequel Shown At D23

Lupita Nyong’o, Danai Gurira & Letitia Wright opened up about honoring Chadwick Boseman‘s memory and the impending release of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

“Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” will have a runtime of two hours and 41 minutes, according to listings on multiple movie theater websites.The sequel to the Best Picture-nominated superhero film will be the second-longest film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe canon, second only to the three-hour “Avengers: Endgame.” It is five minutes longer than the previous film to hold that No. 2 spot, Chloe Zhao’s “Eternals,” and 27 minutes longer than the first “Black Panther.” TheWrap has reached out to Disney for comment.While several films like “No Time to Die” and “West Side Story” have regularly exceeded 2.5 hours in runtime, audiences have shown that this doesn’t dissuade them from buying a ticket as long as the quality is still high.

“Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” hits theaters this November, the sequel will introduce audiences to the first big-screen MCU character who is a mutant – you know, like from the “X-Men.” Actor Tenoch Huerta, who plays the villain Namor in “Wakanda Forever,” confirmed to Empire that his character is indeed a mutant.The mutants, of course, were previously controlled onscreen by 20th Century Fox in the “X-Men” films, but as a result of Disney’s acquisition of Fox, the Marvel characters are now being integrated into Marvel Studios’ self-contained Marvel Cinematic Universe.MCU fans met their first mutant in the finale of the Disney+ series “Ms. Marvel,” in which it was revealed that the titular superhero Kamala Khan is almost certainly a mutant.

Marvel boss Kevin Feige has said it was “much too soon” to recast Chadwick Boseman in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.The film producer reflected on the forthcoming sequel in an interview with Empire, explaining where the franchise will go in light of the death of Boseman who played T’Challa in the first film.“It just felt like it was much too soon to recast,” Feige said, before referring to the ethos of the Marvel comics.“Stan Lee always said that Marvel represents the world outside your window,” he continued.“And we had talked about how, as extraordinary and fantastical as our characters and stories are, there’s a relatable and human element to everything we do. The world is still processing the loss of Chad.

“Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” is a landmark for several reasons: it’s the final film in MCU‘s Phase 4; it’s Ryan Coogler‘s first movie since the 2018 film; and this sequel doesn’t star Chadwick Boseman, who passed away in August 2020 when the movie was in development. But Coogler and the “Wakana Forever” cast vowed to make a movie that lives up to the late actor’s legacy.

When Chadwick Boseman passed away from cancer in August 2020, no one knew what to expect from Ryan Coogler‘s already confirmed “Black Panther” sequel. Would Cooger and Kevin Feige recast someone else as T’Challa? Would the sequel be scrapped entirely even though the 2018 film was a mega-hit with critics and audiences alike? Thankfully, Marvel Studios went ahead with the sequel and chose not to recast Boseman’s iconic role.

Following Chadwick Boseman’s shocking death in 2020, Marvel Studios was tasked with the decision of whether to recast his King T’Challa role in Ryan Coogler’s upcoming Black Panther sequel, Wakanda Forever, a role Boseman also had previously played in Captain America: Civil War and the Avengers films. In an interview with Empire Magazine, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige talks about the decision to not recast the role, and instead find a way to honor Boseman along with a different approach in the sequel.

Lupita Nyong'o "dreaded" shooting 'Black Panther: Wakanda Forever' without Chadwick Boseman. The 39-year-old actress starred as Nakia in the 2018 MCU movie alongside Chadwick Boseman - who died from colon cancer at the age of 43 back in 2020 - in the title role and explained that she found it "unfathomable" that director Ryan Coogler could find a way to bring a sequel to the screen without her former co-star. She said: "I didn’t have doubts – I had dread.

Zack Sharf Brad Pitt and Sandra Bullock swapped cameos this year when Pitt showed up in Bullock’s $105 million-grossing romantic-comedy “The Lost City” and Bullock showed up in Pitt’s late summer action tentpole “Bullet Train.” But would the two ever headline a movie together? It turns out they planned to years ago by developing a comedy in which they were going to play warring ex-spouses on QVC. The Pitt-Bullock comedy never made it past early development. “Actually, Sandy [Sandra Bullock] and I did once try to develop a whole idea of a husband and wife team, who were QVC’s most successful salespeople, but we’re getting a divorce, we hate each other, and we’re taking it out on air as we sell things,” Pitt recently told Vogue UK. “That’s as far as we got.”

Letitia Wright has been in some of the biggest films of all time, playing a superhero for Marvel Studios.
