Marvel Studios President and Marvel Entertainment Chief Creative Officer Kevin Feige announces that Black Panther 2 has started filming.

Marvel Studios’ highly anticipated Black Panther: Wakanda Forever started filming in Atlanta on Tuesday, June 29 at Pinewood Studios.

The announcement came from Marvel Studios President and Marvel Entertainment Chief Creative Officer Kevin Feige at the Black Widow Global Fan Event in Los Angeles. “It’s clearly very emotional without Chad,” Feige told Variety. “But everyone is also very excited to bring the world of Wakanda back to the public and back to the fans. We’re going to do it in a way that would make Chad proud.”

Letitia Wright, Lupita Nyong’o, Winston Duke, Angela Bassett, Danai Gurira and Martin Freeman will return for the sequel, which will build on the legacy established by the late Chadwick Boseman. Boseman starred as T’Challa in the first Black Panther film — as well as in Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame — and died in August 2020 at the age of 43 due to colon cancer.
