The story
Why watch Black Panther: Wakanda Forever?
Following the death of King T’Challa, Shuri, Ramonda and their allies must protect Wakanda while confronting a new international reality. Ryan Coogler returns to direct a sequel that also introduces Namor and an undersea nation.
The film makes room for grief alongside the pressure of defending a country. Shuri and the people around her do not all process loss in the same way. Watch how those differences shape decisions before the larger conflict asks them to act together.
