Marvel Studios officially confirms Black Panther 2 is in development. After being introduced in 2016's Captain America: Civil War, T'Challa headlined his own standalone film last year. And though Marvel Studios has produced two of the handful of films to earn more than $2 billion at the worldwide box office, Black Panther is undoubtedly one of their greatest achievements. Not only did the movie break box office records during its historic run, Black Panther became the first comic book movie to receive a Best Picture nomination at the Academy Awards.

Given how wildly successful Black Panther was, it was a foregone conclusion Marvel would move forward with a sequel. In October 2018, director Ryan Coogler signed on to helm the followup, as well as write the script. Since then, Black Panther 2 details have largely been kept under wraps, but now fans know when they'll be able to return to Wakanda during Phase 4.

During their Hall H panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2019, Marvel Studios unveiled their Phase 4 slate. Black Panther 2 was not officially dated, but Kevin Feige confirmed the studio is indeed working on it.
