'Black Panther 3' is officially happening at Marvel

"Black Panther 3" is officially a go at Marvel Studios.

According to a report on Deadline, executive and film producer Nate Moore is departing Marvel, but will continue to work on projects, including the "Black Panther" sequel.

"I couldn’t be more excited to apply my experience and passion for film towards theatrical movies in all genres, including returning to the world of Wakanda for Black Panther 3," Moore was quoted as saying.

Marvel's Kevin Feige and Louis D’Esposito meanwhile said that they are fortunate to still continue working with their "fantastic colleague" and "wonderful friend."

“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," they said.

Black Panther, played by the late Chadwick Boseman, was introduced in the Marvel Cinematic Universe in "Captain America: Civil War" (2016). In 2018, "Black Panther" gave Boseman the spotlight as T'Challa.

The sequel film "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever," was released in 2022. It paid tribute to Boseman, who succumbed to his battle with colon cancer in 2020. —JCB, GMA Integrated News
