As a seasoned movie critic with over two decades of industry experience under my belt, I’ve seen more than my fair share of superhero movies that left audiences craving for more. The announcement of Black Panther 3 has me positively tingling with anticipation, especially considering Ryan Coogler’s masterful storytelling and the addition of Denzel Washington to the cast.
It’s been some time since we received updates on “Black Panther 3,” the upcoming sequel in Ryan Coogler’s successful segment of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. But now that it’s been confirmed that Coogler is penning a part for Denzel Washington, let’s dust off our speculation caps, examine the ongoing “Multiversal Saga,” and dissect every unresolved thread from “Black Panyer: Wakanda Forever” that might hint at the storyline of the third film.
Wakanda Is On the Brink of War
Following the events of “Wakanda Forever”, a unique power dynamic unfolded within the nation that will significantly influence its destiny moving forward. M’Baku now reigns as King of Wakanda, while Shuri has taken on the mantle of the Black Panther – a first in the Marvel Cinematic Universe for these roles to be distinct. The Dora Milaje have undergone transformation too, with Ayo assuming the rank of General. As for Okoye and Aneka, they’ve become the Midnight Angels, armed with advanced armor and free to operate beyond the traditional boundaries of the Dora Milaje. However, their services will soon be required as Wakanda finds itself at odds with the world due to a deal struck by Shuri with Namor.
Shuri has consented to shield Talokan’s secret and its Vibranium stores by accepting responsibility for Namor’s assaults. Consequently, the world no longer perceives Wakanda as a tranquil nation. Therefore, it’s just a question of time before someone deems the Wakandans a threat that requires action.
During their last confrontation, Shuri emerged victorious over Namor; however, a secretive chat with Namora disclosed his hidden intentions. He is convinced that when the global community eventually opposes Wakanda, they will require Talokan as allies, implying his underlying aim of conflict still persists. Given the current instability in Wakanda’s global standing, it appears Namor may achieve his objectives. With the Black Panther films focusing on international politics, it is likely that Black Panther 3 will continue this theme by bringing war to Wakanda’s frontier.
Marvel Studios could potentially transform “Black Panther 3” into a multi-character film similar to “Captain America: Civil War.” It would certainly be intriguing to explore how various Marvel heroes react to a conflict involving the U.S. and Wakanda. Regarding Denzel Washington, he might portray a fresh hero drafted to handle Wakanda affairs or perhaps a high-ranking politician entangled in the country’s international disputes.
Black Panther 3: Vibranium vs Adamantium
For centuries, Wakanda remained concealed due to the extraordinary mineral, Vibranium, which possesses a near-magical ability to craft advanced technologies, even deadly ones. Now that the veil has been lifted, many covet Vibranium in hopes of wielding it for military dominance. Yet, Wakanda Forever, this secretive African nation maintained peace by utilizing Vibranium defensively. However, Captain America: Brave New World is set to unveil adamantium as another metal capable of extraordinary technological feats and combat applications.
By accepting responsibility for Namor’s actions, Wakanda has found itself in a delicate diplomatic predicament. With CIA Director Valentina Allegra de Fontaine (played by Julia Louis-Dreyfus) looking to exploit this situation against the nation, Wakanda is facing growing international scrutiny. The emergence of Adamantium, a metal previously exclusive to Wakanda, could exacerbate their precarious position, as the U.S., now mining it from the dead Celestial Tiamut, can potentially use this new resource to contest Wakanda’s dominance in the metal market.
A New T’Challa Will Rise
Incorporating young Prince T’Challa, the offspring of the initial Black Panther and Nakia, introduces an additional dimension to Wakanda’s upcoming events. At present, M’Baku holds the title as king, but given that T’Challa has a direct heir, another leadership transition seems imminent. The outcome of Avengers: Secret Wars, a film marking the end of the “Multiversal Saga”, may potentially accelerate these events, presenting us with an elder version of T’Challa’s son before we anticipate. If this occurs, it appears that the forthcoming Black Panther 3 will likely grapple with the succession dilemma, possibly forcing M’Baku off his throne.
Presenting young Prince T’Challa paves the way for “Black Panther 3” to delve into Wakanda’s enigmatic past. With the fresh T’Challa learning about the Black Panther legacy and its supernatural bond with Bast, the third film can illuminate how magic and technology coexist harmoniously in Wakanda. This could lead to Washington appearing as a villain or an ally with occult ties. Given the conclusion of the Multiverse Saga, we might encounter an alternate T’Challa (portrayed by a different actor), navigating his way through the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Looking ahead to 2025 when “Eyes of Wakanda” is set to debut, we may uncover more connections that help us understand how everything fits in place. This animated series will be intricately linked to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), delving into the covert activities of the Dora Milaje as global spies. Therefore, it promises to offer insights into Wakanda’s ongoing interaction with the world at large.
Eyes of Wakanda premieres on August 6, 2025. Black Panther 3 still has no release date.
