Director Ryan Coogler and actors Winston Duke and Letitia Wright were on hand to welcome David Jonsson to the MCU, who will play T\u2019Challa\u2019s son, T\u2019Challa Jr.<\/p>\n<p>Jonsson has appeared in films such as Alien: Romulus and The Long Walk. While no official title has been shared, Feige revealed that Black Panther 3 is due to hit theaters Dec. 15, 2028.<\/p>\n<p>Coogler, who\u2019s writing and directing the next installment of the series, has reportedly begun production. He helmed the first two Black Panther movies, which brought the late Chadwick Boseman to the screen as the royal hero. T\u2019Challa Jr. appeared as a child at the end of Black Panther 2, and the character will clearly be aged up for the new movie. <\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s rumored that X-Men character Storm will be in the mix, who has a history with Wakanda (and Black Panther) in the comic books. With a standalone X-Men movie in the works and renewed enthusiasm for the mutants since the release of the animated X-Men \u201897 series, an interconnected storyline would make sense for the MCU.\u00a0 Also rumored to appear in the superhero film is Brother Voodoo, a sorcerer-superhero (like Doctor Strange) who also works with the dead.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (aka Black Panther 2) introduced Tenoch Huerta\u2019s Namor and his underwater kingdom into the MCU, and he\u2019s slated to surface in this year\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/culture\/entertainment\/avengers-doomsday-trailer-thor-doctor-doom-marvel\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"2640105\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Avengers: Doomsday<\/a>, along with the new Black Panther, Shuri (played by Wright).<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img alt=\"Kourtnee Jackson\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/31cda7bd-a86b-48c0-8d1c-fc97c00efb5f.jpg\"  class=\"avatar avatar-64 photo\" height=\"64\" width=\"64\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"\/>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tKourtnee Jackson\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\tSenior Editor\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tKourtnee covers streaming services and entertainment.
