Recently, director Ryan Coogler discussed what the original script of Black Panther sequel looked like and how it was written for Chadwick Boseman. Following the death of the actor in 2020 after his cancer battle, the director and co-writer Joe Robert Cole re-wrote a script after Marvel had decided against recasting of Black Panther. “The script we wrote before Chadwick passed was very much rooted in T’Challa’s perspective,” Coogler told The Hollywood Reporter. “It was a massive movie but also simultaneously a character study that delved deeply into his psyche and situation.”
He revealed, “The Black Panther has existed in Wakanda for centuries, so the notion of someone else picking up the mantle didn’t seem inorganic,” said Wakanda Forever producer Nate Moore. “But once that had to become a reality, then it was, ‘OK, what makes the most sense for the story? Who actually makes the most sense to take this thing on?’”
Directed by Ryan Coogler, the action-adventure stars Letitia Wright, Angela Bassett, Tenoch Huerta Mejía, Winston Duke, Danai Gurira, Lupita Nyong’o, Florence Kasumba and Martin Freeman.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever reportedly clocks in at 2 hours 41 minutes making the film the longest Phase 4 movie. The film opens in theatres on November 11, 2022, in English, Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu in India.
