After the tragic death of Chadwick Boseman the Black Panther franchise was left hanging in the balance. Director Ryan Coogler decided not to recast the role, which left lingering questions of how this franchise moves forward. In this video from the Modern Movies series, we will be taking a look at the new film from Disney and Marvel to see if Wakanda Forever can be more than just a tribute to an actor taken too soon. Does it have what it takes to stand upright on its own as a good movie?
In theaters now.
In Marvel Studios’ Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Queen Ramonda (Angela Basset), Shuri (Letitia Wright), M’Baku (Windston Duke), Okoye (Danai Gurira) and the Dora Milaje (including Florence Kasumba) fight to protect their nation from intervening world powers in the wake of King T’Challa’s death.
