A Black Panther 3 trailer has been doing rounds on the internet lately. Since its launch, fans have been wondering whether the trailer is real or fake. The trailer features Will Smith, sparking curiosity among fans about whether he would appear in Black Panther: Shadows of Wakanda.
Amidst ongoing rumors of him replacing Shuri as Black Panther in Part 3, we finally have the answers to these burning questions.
Is the new Black Panther 3: Shadows of Wakanda trailer real or fake?
The recently released Black Panther 3 trailer is fake and fan-made.
The fan-made video, uploaded by KH Studio on YouTube, skillfully incorporates scenes from earlier films featuring Will Smith. Furthermore, the footage includes AI-generated voiceovers. You can watch the trailer below:
While Black Panther 3 isn’t officially greenlit, it seems likely to be in the pipeline. Black Panther: Wakanda Forever tackled the theme of loss, mirroring Chadwick Boseman’s real-world passing, with T’Challa’s death at its core. Despite the somber tone, the movie set the stage for the Black Panther legacy to continue.
Currently, there is no official news on Black Panther: Shadows of Wakanda, including casting or release date. However, Shuri and other Wakandan characters are expected to appear in the upcoming Ironheart series or the next Avengers films.
Is Will Smith replacing Shuri’s Black Panther in Part 3?
No, Will Smith is not expected to replace Shuri’s Black Panther in Part 3.
Letitia Wright, who portrays Shuri in the MCU, hinted at her return during an appearance on The View. While promoting her film Sound of Hope: The Story of Possum Trot on the show, the conversation shifted to Shuri’s future, and Wright’s response, followed by audience gasps, suggested exciting news.
Wright’s veiled comment, “There are a lot of things coming up,” left fans buzzing with excitement about her MCU future. In Wakanda Forever, Shuri took up the mantle of Black Panther, leading Wakanda through a fierce battle against Namor and his underwater kingdom.
Wright’s desire to continue with the character adds to the anticipation for her next appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. While Wright has hinted at her comeback, viewers should wait for an official confirmation.
