Letitia Wright added, “You know, we just had a terrific two years of bringing it out and everybody coming together to support it. We need a little bit of a break, we need to regroup and (director) Ryan (Coogler) needs to get back into the lab, so it’s going to take a little while, but we’re really excited for you guys to see that.”
When pressed for more, Wright said, “I always try to do positive words and positive thinking, and I believe that good words manifest, so I’m manifesting a Black Panther 3, why not?”
For Variety’s November 2022 cover story about Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Coogler and Marvel Studios chief Kevin Feige spoke about a potential third chapter. At the time, Coogler said that he “definitively” had “no idea what I’m doing next as a writer and director.”
But Feige said he had been having “conversations” with Coogler about a third “Black Panther” movie, with “ideas pitched back and forth”.
When asked whether he would ever consider making a “Black Panther” movie without Coogler, Feige demurred and referenced the death of “Black Panther” star Chadwick Boseman.
“I go back to what I said when we decided to make ‘Wakanda Forever’ after losing Chad,” he said.
“This mythology and this ensemble and these characters deserve to continue and will continue after all of us are gone, I hope, and will continue forever in movies the way it has in comics for 50-plus years.”
Feige added, however, that working without Coogler “wouldn’t be the preference”.
“Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” has made $831 million worldwide since its November 11 release date.
