Namor (and others) strike at a seemingly weakened Wakanda in this dramatic trailer for the next 'Black Panther' film.
Television shows, like NewsRadio and Eight Simple Rules, have worked a shocking death of a significant cast member into the ongoing narrative, but this is uncharted territory for a blockbuster theatrical. What would be a significant upswing for any other franchise (say, Thor: The Dark World earning 13% more domestically and 43% more worldwide than the first Thor) is par for the course. Unlike Furious 7, Star Wars: The Last Jedi or The Dark Knight, Black Panther 2 explicitly acknowledges the death of its onscreen title character (and, by proxy, the actor). As for how it will perform, it’s just a question of whether it earns ‘all the money’ or must settle for ‘the vast majority of the money.’ If it merely plays like Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (-37% domestic but -28% worldwide), it’ll still gross $441 million domestic and (minus China, presumably) $950 million worldwide. That feels like the realistic worst-case-scenario, and quite a few sequels to well-liked predecessors (Star Trek Into Darkness, Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows, The Kingsman: The Golden Circle, Avengers: Age of Ultron, etc.) gross less domestically but more overseas for relatively over/under global totals compared to the respective first flick. I’m curious to what extent it will play in the whole ‘grimmer, darker sequel that challenges the simplistic morality of its crowdpleasing predecessor’ box since the first Black Panther flirted with that narrative.
Angela Bassett, Letitia Wright, Danai Gurira, Lupita Nyong'o, and Tenoch Huerta lead the thrilling new trailer for Marvel's Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

The sequel also brings back Ryan Coogler, who directed and co-wrote the movie. The latest look at [Black Panther: Wakanda Forever](https://www.polygon.com/sdcc/23198235/black-panther-2-marvel-mcu-phase-4) gives us our best look yet at the movie, but it’s still not clear who the new Black Panther will be — though you can take a pretty good guess. Meanwhile, Riri Williams (Dominique Thorne), a young inventor, builds a suit of armor that looks a lot like Iron Man armor — so those worried that Ironheart’s appearance was merely a tease in this film can rest assured, it seems like she’s playing a pretty big part.

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever also has the added responsibility of introducing Riri Williams/Ironheart to the MCU. Considering Kaluuya’s pivotal role in the first movie, it will be interesting to see how his absence is handled in the movie, especially since his character was also married to Gurira’s Okoye. Beyond being the sequel to one of the MCU’s biggest hits, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever also has an impressive cast stacked in its favor.
Danai Gurira, Florence Kasumba, Winston Duke, and Martin Freeman reprise their roles from the first installment. Director Ryan Coogler brought in newcomers such ...
