Marvel Studios has released a trailer for “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” – the long-awaited sequel to her hit film “Black Panther” – which she says will open in theaters in the United States on November 11.
The teaser, screened Saturday at the Comic-Con International pop culture convention in San Diego, features several cast members from the first film, as well as a tribute to Chadwick Boseman, who played one of the leads, the King T’Challa. Boseman, whose image appears on a mural in the teaser, died of colon cancer at 43 in 2020.
The film follows Queen Ramonda (Angela Bassett), Shuri (Letitia Wright), M’Baku (Winston Duke), General Okoye (Danai Gurira) and the group of elite female warriors Dora Milaje (including Ayo, played by Florence Kasumba) as they “fight to protect their nation from intervening world powers in the wake of King’s death T’Challa,” the studio said on Saturday in A press release.
“As the Wakandans strive to embrace their next chapter, the heroes must unite with the help of War Dog Nakia (Lupita Nyong’o) and Everett Ross (Martin Freeman) and forge a new path for the kingdom. from Wakanda,” the studio added.
The trailer — a visually dazzling glimpse into the future world of Wakanda — is set to a cover of Bob Marley’s song “No Woman, No Cry.” Ludwig Goransson, the film’s composer, described it as “a first aural glimpse of Wakanda Forever”.
The film’s “sound world”, he said in the statement, was created during trips to Mexico and Nigeria, where he and others worked with traditional musicians to learn more about the “contexts cultural, social and historical of their music”.
Then they built a catalog of instrumental and vocal recordings with those artists and “began to build a musical vocabulary for Talocan and Wakanda characters, histories and cultures,” Goransson said, adding that the idea was to create “an immersive and enveloping sound universe for the film.
Speaking at the Comic-Con event on Saturday, Nyong’o said it was “monumental” return to Wakanda. “The Wakanda universe is expanding,” she said. “You have a lot to look forward to.”
Gurira, who plays Okoyegeneral of Wakanda’s elite bodyguards and head of the armed forces and intelligence, said that when she grew up in Zimbabwe she always admired the way America “made superheroes on stage and on big screen”.
To the crowd, she added, “You embrace this culture and celebrate it. That, for me, is everything. »
