The sequel to 2018’s Black Panther will begin filming in July in Atlanta next year. The film is currently scheduled to be released on May 6, 2022.
The sequel was sidelined after Chadwick Boseman’s sudden demise following which filmmaker Ryan Coogler and Marvel navigated their way through grief. The studios had earlier planned to begin production for the sequel in March 2021.
Tenoch Huerta, known for Narcos: Mexico, is reportedly in talks to play one of the film’s villains, though we don’t know who exactly.
Lupita Nyong’o, Danai Gurira, Martin Freeman, Daniel Kaluuya, Letitia Wright, Winston Duke, Angela Bassett and Forest Whitaker also starred in Black Panther. Letitia Wright, Lupita Nyong’o, Winston Duke and Angela Bassett are expected to come back for the sequel.
2020 has been the only year that did not see the release of any Marvel movie for the first time since 2009.
