Full trailer for 'Black Panther: Wakanda Forever' teases looming war with Namor, Ironheart's arrival
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever hits the big screen Friday, Nov. 11.
War comes to Wakanda in the latest trailer for Marvel Studios' Black Panther sequel — Wakanda Forever.
In the wake of King T'Challa's untimely death, the technologically superior nation has never been more vulnerable, threatened on all sides by covetous world powers all hoping to snag a piece of the vibranium pie. "We know what you whisper," a quietly intense Queen Ramonda (Angela Bassett) declares during a speech at the United Nations. "They have lost their protector..."
Moreover, a conflict is brewing with the underwater kingdom of Talokan led by Namor the Sub-Mariner (Tenoch Huerta), an age-old rival of Wakanda in the comics. But killing the water-logged royal "will risk eternal war," warns M'Baku (Winston Duke). Of course, a new Black Panther is waiting in the wings, although the promotional materials continue to remain cagey about who exactly will carry forth the torch ignited by the late Chadwick Boseman. Is it T'Challa's sister — Princess Shuri (Letitia Wright) — or a different character altogether? There might even be more than one! In addition, the trailer teases the arrival of Riri Williams (Dominique Thorne), aka Tony Stark's successor: Ironheart.
