Letitia Wright Says ‘Black Panther 3’ May Already Be “In The Works”

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Amy Sussman / Getty With the commercial success of Ryan Coogler’s Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, it’s a no brainer that Marvel Studios would green light a third installment into the beloved film franchise.

HHW Gaming: Xbox Teams Up ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’ For Custom Xbox Series X & More

HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source:  Black Panther: Wakanda Forever One thing you can count on from Xbox is a collaboration, and this latest one is pretty damn dope. On Thursday, November 3, 2022, Xbox is teaming up with Black Panther: Wakanda Forever for a custom Xbox Series X and accessories that are as rare as vibranium and other incredible initiatives. It’s only fitting that Xbox enlists Wakanda’s Master Scientist, who *in our best M’Baku voice* “scoffs at tradition” to unveil the custom goodies. Five lucky individuals could own a custom Xbox Series X console that draws inspiration from the iconic Wakandan salute, custom controller holders bundled with replica Kimoyo beads, and custom sterling charms.

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever Trailer Reveals New Suits and Villains: Watch

We’re finally one step closer to returning to Wakanda: Marvel has unveiled the first full-length trailer for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. The preview arrives just under a month away from the sequel’s November 11th release, which comes four years after the smash original Black Panther. A first teaser for the film debuted at San Diego Comic-Con back in summer, but this new trailer gives us deeper looks at the cast. Amongst the returning characters are Shuri (Letitia Wright), Ramonda (Angela Bassett), Nakia (Lupita Nyong’o), Okoye (Danai Gurira), and Ayo (Florence Kasumba). All of them are in mourning over the loss of T’Challa (the late, great Chadwick Boseman), but the death of their king and Black Panther protector has apparently opened them up to outside aggressors — particula...

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Liliane Lathan / Getty Not much is known about how Black Panther: Wakanda Forever will continue on without its main star Chadwick Boseman (R.I.P), but already the film had to halt production as the person rumored to be picking up the mantle he left behind suffered an onset injury during filming.

The 25 Most Anticipated Movies of Fall 2020

“New year, new decade, new films, right?” That was January, back when we were still looking ahead at 2020 with blind optimism and ill-fated excitement. Sigh, hindsight is 20/20 they say, right? Who knew. At the time, we had 50 exciting new titles we were anticipating, most of which have since been either postponed, dumped to VOD, or relegated to a limbo state. It’s been an unnerving year for the film industry, to say the least. A year fraught with shutdowns, furloughs, layoffs, bankruptcies, and re-evaluations. All of that change has prompted a seismic shift in how everything’s run across the media landscape, and no one truly has a grip on things just yet. Odds are they won’t for quite some time. Because of this, anticipating anything right now — let alone anything in pop culture — seems l...
