Black Panther: Wakanda Foreveris set to bring a new Wakanda experience for viewers. While there are no plans for a third installment of the film series yet, the world of Wakanda is set to expand further with a Dinsey+ spin-off series. The untitledWakanda Spin-offwasannounced in 2021, with Ryan Coogler involved in the projectas both showrunner and executive producer through his banner Proximity Media.
AsBlack Panther: Wakanda Foreversets the story of Black Panther on a new path, theWakanda Spin-offwill help fans dive further into the kingdom and, most importantly,know more about Okoye and Dora Milaje. However,Wakanda Foreverproducer Nate Moore has given a not-so-promising update on the show. It was earlier suspected that the show is being actively developed at Marvel Studios. But, it turns out, the work on the project has not yet begun, and the script is also yet to be laid out.
Talking toCollider, Nate Moore revealed thatWakanda Spin-offis not as near as the fans would want, but ideas for it are being laid out. The reason for the delay is Ryan Coogler’s busy schedule with the production ofIronheart.
Because of the amount of time and attention that went into this film, and frankly the Ironheart show, that is probably not as far along as people want it to be, but there are certainly great ideas that we’re still talking to Ryan about. So, we’ll see how far we can get with it.
Black Pantherfans will be slightly disappointed with the news. With no plans forBlack Panther 3andWakanda Spin-offdelayed, it would be some time before the MCU takes them to the nation. Per Nate’s comments, the spin-off is still under conceptualization.

While theWakanda Spin-Offis not precisely on the charts,Disney+’sIronheartis nearly complete and set to enter the final stages of production. The showfeatures Dominique Thorne as Riri Williams, who takes on the mantle of Ironheart after developing a suit that rivals Tony Stark’sIron Man. The character is set to make her first appearance inBlack Panther: Wakanda Forever,where Shuri and Okoye will recruit her.
Talking aboutIronheart, Moore said:
It’s nearly complete. I think they might be on their second to last day if I’m not mistaken.
Ryan Coogler is executive producingIronheart, which is whyhe hasn’t started any profound work onWakanda Spin-off. Marvel Studios is set to announce a release date forIronheart, butit’s expected to stream on Disney+ during late 2023. The show has found Parker Robbins, aka The Hood, in Anthony Ramos, a character who will portray an ally of Riri Williams. Currently,Ironheartis in the news for reportedlygetting Sacha Baron Cohen on board as Mephisto, a character heavily rumored to be in MCU sinceWandaVision.
TheWakanda Spin-off, though not in production, is a much-awaited series in the MCU. But given its status, the show will not release before Phase Six of the continuity if it fits somewhere in theMultiverse Saga.
