Some of the cast of ‘Black Panther’
‘Black Panther’ fans can finally mark their calendars for the highly-anticipated sequel.
Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige took the stage at Disney’s D23 Expo in Anaheim, California, along with film director Ryan Coogler, to announce that the second movie of the ‘Black Panther’ saga will debut in theaters on May 6, 2022.
The Disney-Marvel movie won three Oscars for original score and production as well as costume design.
Since hitting theaters in February 2018, ‘Black Panther’ has grossed more than $700 million, according to Box Office Mojo.
Two ‘Black Panther’ crew members made Oscar history by becoming the first black winners in their categories at the 2019 Oscars.
Ruth Carter scooped the costume design trophy, and Hannah Beachler shared the production design prize with Jay Hart.
“This has been a long time coming,” Carter said in her speech at the award.
“Marvel may have created the first black superhero but through costume design we turned him into an African king.”
