Black Panther 3
Marvel quietly announced a third Black Panther movie is officially moving forward in a press release on the departure of company executive Nate Moore.
[Deadline]Nate is a fantastic executive and colleague as well as a wonderful friend to all of us here at Marvel Studios. He has been a core member of our team since 2010, and his influence will continue to reverberate in our storytelling. Although we’ll miss him a great deal, we look forward to watching what he does next while also having the good fortune of working with him in a new way on our next Black Panther movie.
