The reveal of T'Challa's son has a lot of fans making the same jokes about who could play him in 'Black Panther 3.'

Few movie studios are quite as secretive as Marvel. The MCU is a major franchise, and the attempts to keep spoilers from leaking are quite significant. This made it more than a little wild when Denzel Washington just came out and said he would be in Black Panther 3, a movie that Marvel had never even confirmed it was making.

Late in 2024, Washington teased that filmmaker Coogler was not only hard at work on Black Panther 3, but he was also writing Washington a special part for the film - an admission that forced Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige to confirm that Black Panther 3 was indeed in development.
