Letitia Wright reprises her role as Shuri and Lupita Nyong’o as Nakia. Black Panther: Wakanda Forever has had an 82-day theatrical release prior to its streaming date being announced. Marvel Studios tries its hardest to have movies run in theaters for as long as possible before they end up on Disney+.

Letitia Wright and Lupita Nyong’o Continue the Black Panther Story Arc After Boseman’s Passing
It was devastating for fans of Chadwick Boseman’s work after he passed back in 2020. His colleagues had nothing but positive things to say about the late actor. He cemented Black Panther’s place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe with his portrayal. Letitia Wright, Lupita Nyong’o, and Angela Bassett are able to continue the hero’s story despite Boseman’s death. Fans can also see the story continue in their own homes with the upcoming Disney+ release date of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Marvel fans still seem to be loyal and enjoy Black Panther even with its changes. This does not change the looming Marvel fatigue that fans are feeling because of the many shows and movies they keep making for the next phases. Letitia Wright and Lupita Nyong’o have been fan favorites of Black Panther, but hopefully, that well doesn’t run dry.
The Disney+ release date for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is February 1, so decide for yourself if you’re still on board with the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
