Black Panther: Wakanda Forever Trailer

Return to Wakanda in the jaw-dropping trailer that sets the perfect tone for one of Marvel’s most epic and emotional chapters so far. Following the tragic death of Chadwick Boseman, everyone wondered how Marvel and director Ryan Coogler would navigate the tragedy. Not only confirming that the star will not be replaced nor forgotten, the trailer reveals that he remains a key part of the story that takes us back to Wakanda, a kingdom mourning the loss of its leader, and reunites us with fan-favourite Wakandans from the original film as they continue to fight to protect their nation in the wake of King T’Challa’s death. As well as reuniting fans with favourite characters from the first film – namely Angela Bassett’s Ramonda, Letitia Wright’s Shuri, Lupita Nong’o’s Nakia, and Winston Duke’s M’Baku – the trailer sheds a little more light on the plot and shows how the arrival of Tenoch Huerta’s Namor, the ruler of an undersea kingdom, makes waves across the surface world. There’s footage of more futuristic Wakandan technology, a tease for a Ironheart, and action-packed footage of a war between those above the water and those below it. While the intention was clearly never to replace Boseman, a striking closing shot shows an unknown character dropping in wearing the iconic cat-like costume and all but confirms one of the women of Wakanda will take up his mantle. Though it’s still to be seen who this is, it’s clear this action-packed, visually stunning sequel promises to be as much a classic Marvel adventure as it is a moving tribute to Chadwick Boseman, the man and his character’s legacy within the MCU. Black Panther: Wakanda Forever comes to cinemas November 11.
