Black Panther Is NO African Hero

With the release of Wakanda Forever and the success of the film at the box office, I did not go and watch the film. #wakandaforever #disney #africa

Black Panther made over a billion dollars when it came out. With the black lives matter BLM movement in full swing when the first film came out, times haven't changed much. Since then we've had the Colin Kaepernick situation and many other topical issues regarding race. Many black people believe Black Panther was a great movie for black empowerment but I definitely believe otherwise.

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is a 2022 American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character Black Panther. Produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures, it is the sequel to Black Panther (2018) and the 30th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Directed by Ryan Coogler, who co-wrote the screenplay with Joe Robert Cole, the film stars Letitia Wright as Shuri / Black Panther, alongside Lupita Nyong'o, Danai Gurira, Winston Duke, Florence Kasumba, Dominique Thorne, Michaela Coel, Tenoch Huerta Mejía, Martin Freeman, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and Angela Bassett. In the film, the leaders of Wakanda fight to protect their nation in the wake of King T'Challa's death.
Ideas for a sequel began after the release of Black Panther in February 2018. Coogler negotiated to return as director in the following months, and Marvel Studios officially confirmed the sequel's development in mid-2019. Plans for the film changed in August 2020 when Black Panther star Chadwick Boseman died from colon cancer, with Marvel choosing not to recast his role of T'Challa. The return of other main cast members from the first film was confirmed that November, and the title was announced in May 2021. Production initially took place from late June to early November 2021, in Atlanta and Brunswick, Georgia, as well as around Massachusetts, before a hiatus to allow Wright to recover from an injury sustained during filming. Production resumed by mid-January 2022 and wrapped in late March in Puerto Rico.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever premiered at the El Capitan Theatre and the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, Los Angeles, on October 26, 2022, and was released in the United States on November 11, 2022, as the final film in Phase Four of the MCU. The film received praise from critics for its action sequences, direction, performances (particularly those of Wright, Huerta, and Bassett), and tribute to Boseman. The film received two nominations at the 80th Golden Globe Awards and six nominations at the 28th Critics' Choice Awards, both of which nominated Bassett for her performance. Black Panther: Wakanda Forever has grossed over $808 million worldwide, becoming the sixth highest-grossing film of 2022.
