Black Panther 3 December 15, 2028
 
Quote:

Marvel Studios closed out its Hall H presentation at San Diego Comic-Con (you can find our live blog here) by announcing that Black Panther 3 is officially in the works from Black Panther and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever director Ryan Coogler.

The movie will be released in theaters on December 15, 2028, and in the post-Avengers: Secret Wars MCU, Alien: Romulus and The Long Walk star David Jonsonn will play the adult T'Challa II!

Introduced as the young son of T'Challa and Nakia in the 2022 sequel, fans have long speculated that T'Challa II (a.k.a. Toussaint) would be aged up to take his father's place in the MCU. The character doesn't exist in the comics, so we don't know how much he'll differ from his father, or whether this is a way to essentially recast the role without directly replacing the late Chadwick Boseman.

Jonsson is 32, so he's not exactly playing a teenage or hugely inexperienced T'Challa in Black Panther 3. Boseman was 40 when he played the hero in 2016's Captain America: Civil War, so his son's age suggests big changes are coming to the MCU after Secret Wars.

It was also confirmed that the threequel will be shot on larger format celluloid film, meaning we should be in for a real visual treat when the end of 2028 rolls around.

Could have just recast T'Challa and spared us either a flash forward or a nonsensical age-up.

And then if the actor playing T'challa II accidentally steps in front of a bus we'll need to have a funeral for the character and all again?

Well... I'm leaning towards they should have recast T'Challa and quite frankly this is more evidence that the MCU needs a James Bond style series of relaunches.

The good news is that new BP guy was great in Alien: Romulus.

In terms of recasting, a lot of black guys tend to look alike, so I don't know why they didn't want to replace him with a similar looking black guy and nobody would be able to tell much the difference. I think it's just that Chadwick Boseman had a lot more prestige, so that's why they didn't do that.

I'm also wondering what they'll do with Nick Fury. Samuel L. Jackson is now 77 years old, there's no way he's still going to be doing this another 10 years from now. Samuel L. Jackson can't be replaced either, no other black guy looks like him, so I wonder if he's just going to die in a blaze of glory at some point like a heroic death. Would fit his character.

They should replace him with white 616 Fury and say he's from another earth now that they're merging universes together. It would work since he would be from a "different era" the 70s or whatever like the F4, maybe from that earth even.
But yeah, I guess they'll just kill him at one point, we had enough Fury in the MCU so if he never appears again it'd be fine.

The thing is they just write him like Samuel L. Jackson now, he doesn't even feel like Nick Fury. It's just Samuel L. Jackson with an eye patch.

Ah, of the rumors about Ike Perlmutter are true, I think we finally know CyberCubed's real name.

I know right

Andrew NDB 07-26-2026 08:32 PM

They could just weave back in Coulson to fill the Fury role.

I couldn’t finish BP2 because of how ****ing stupid the Riri **** was, but I did love Shuri in the first one and was fine with her taking over. Even if I didn’t like how they handled the Boseman situation.

So why is Shuri out? T’Challa’s son is still way too young. Makes no sense.

Don't they still have Mahershala Ali on retainer for the never happening Blade movie. There you go, he could play BP or Nick Fury instead.

Honestly, they should have recast. It's not the MCU hadn't recast before then, James Rhodes, Bruce Banner, etc. I think people would understand the reason.
