We recently got a (blurry) first look at Tenoch Huerta's Namor via some Black Panther: Wakanda Forever promo art, and some more artwork has now found its way online courtesy of an upcoming Sprite tie-in promotion.
The images aren't the clearest, but thanks to this latest leak we see Okoye (Danai Gurira) and Shuri (Letitia Wright) striking the signature Wakanda greeting pose, with the latter sporting an updated outfit and a new hairdo.
A rumor did the rounds earlier this week which claimed that the first trailer for the sequel would debut tonight during the NBA finals, but it appears to have been debunked.
There were also rumors that Marvel Studios was planning to move forward with the sequel without Wright, who came under fire for supposedly espousing anti-vax views on set. This led to speculation that the actress may even have been fired outright, but clearly that wasn't the case.
Official plot details are still under wraps, but we have been assured that the MCU sequel will honor the late Chadwick Boseman while continuing the legacy of his character, T'Challa. We may now know how Marvel Studios and director Ryan Coogler intend to achieve this, but it's quite spoilery, so click here if you want to know more!
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is currently scheduled to hit theaters on November 11, 2022.
