At the end of San Diego Comic-Con this Sunday, July 24, the highly anticipated trailer for the second installment of Black Panther was unveiled. Rich in emotions and punctuated by a cover of Bob Marley’s hit “No Woman No Cry” by Nigerian singer Tems, the trailer pays tribute to Chadwick Boseman, alias T’Challa / Black Panther, who died of colon cancer in August 2020 at the age of 42. The character of Chadwick Boseman will not be present in this new opus, neither in digital effects nor interpreted by another actor, but the costume of Black Panther will be put on by a successor that we see at the end of the trailer and whose identity is still unknown. In the first part of this trailer, the kingdom of Wakanda mourns the disappearance of its king, represented on a mural in his memory. But after the mourning, the hour of the fight will come and the voice of Tems will give way to that of Kendrick Lamar in a more rhythmic cover of Bob Marley. In this new opus, Lupita Nyong’o (Nakia), Danai Gurira (Okoye ), Letitia Wright (Shuri), Winston Duke (M’Baku), Martin Freeman (Ross) and Angela Bassett (Queen Ramonda), reprise their roles. They will be joined by Michaela Coel (I May Destroy You) as Aneka and Tenoch Huerta (Narcos: Mexico) as Namor. , paid a moving tribute to the star of the first film, the “fire, great Chadwick Boseman”: “I promise you, I can feel his hand on me right now. Chad is no longer with us physically but his spirit, his passion, his genius, his pride in his culture and the impact he had on this industry will be felt forever.”Black Panther: Wakanda Forever will be released on the 9th November 2022 in French cinemas. It will be the final film in Phase IV of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
