Marvel sure knows how to get fans talking and that’s exactly what the studio behind has done with its newest trailer which teases several upcoming projects including Black Widow, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, The Eternals, and Black Panther 2. 

On Monday, May 3, Marvel Studios dropped a 3-minute feature designed to celebrate the movies with a moving trailer narrated by Marvel legend Stan Lee. In the new trailer, Marvel brilliantly reflects upon the sense of community and experience seeing a Marvel movie in theaters brings to its fans before looking ahead to the future with a series of big reveals.

Kicking off its teases was a series of new footage from the studios’ next three cinematic releases, those being Black Widow, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings and The Eternals. The new first-look footage was quickly followed up by the tease of what’s to come in the years ahead which dropped a few major bombshells including the official titles for Black Panther 2 and Captain Marvel 2. 

What is the official title of Black Panther 2?

Following months of speculation, Marvel has confirmed the official title of Black Panther 2 to be Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. 

While no additional information or footage was revealed in the trailer, the title of the film seems to suggest the highly-anticipated follow-up will be a celebration of all things Wakanda and the legacy of the late Chadwick Boseman, whose character’s fate remains unclear at this time.

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever release date

Marvel fans won’t have to wait too much longer to see just what Marvel Studios has in store for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. This is because Marvel has confirmed the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever release date to be July 8, 2022.
