Marvel Studios has unveiled The trailer for November's Black Panther : Wakanda Forever to eager Fans , who roared their approval in a boisterous session at Comic-Con in San Diego .

The Film is The sequel to 2018's Black Panther , which starred The late Chadwick Boseman as T'Challa, The heroic crime-fighting king of Wakanda, a fictional African country with incredibly advanced technology.

The trailer opens with A Woman singing No Woman, No Cry, But there were Some tears On Stage as Boseman's castmates spoke of how much it meant to them to honour his memory through this new project.

Ryan Coogler , returning to direct The new chapter which is expected to Focus On Wakanda's history, spoke about how excited The T'Challa actor had been to see The First Black Panther footage five years ago at Comic-Con.

" I can feel his hand on me now, " He Said .

The First Black Panther film took over a billion dollars at The Box Office , becoming The First superhero film nominated for The Best picture Oscar - and a cultural milestone for diversity in filmmaking.

Marvel previously confirmed it would not be re-casting The Role of T'Challa, a decision that has divided Fans - Some feeling it should forever belong to Boseman, who died of colon cancer in 2020, and Some Voices - including Boseman's Brother - Saying it should pass to a new actor.

There has been speculation that The Panther suit could now go to Shuri , and while that wasn't confirmed - The very final frame of The trailer features a telltale flash of The Black Panther claws.

Next In Line will be Guardians of The Galaxy Volume 3 , The Final instalment of The space saga, set for release on 5 May. Director James Gunn got teary as he recalled pitching The Franchise a decade ago This Week in North Carolina , where Iron Man 3 was being filmed.

" They've saved The Universe a few times, But really what they do is save each other, " He Said .

" This is The End of that story. I'm Saying Some stories have an end. It doesn't mean everybody dies! "

Gunn was joined on The famous Hall H stage by The Film 's cast, and Chris Pratt (who plays Star-Lord) confirmed it was The First Time they had seen The trailer - " it's beautiful! "

Phase 5 will continue with The Marvels - in which Captain Marvel joins forces with Ms Marvel and Spectrum, aka Monica Rambeau .

And it will conclude In July 2024 with Thunderbolts - But there was no team reveal today, so Fans will have to wait a little longer to learn how that stacks up.
