Here’s How ‘Black Panther 3’ Could Shape the Future of ‘Secret Wars’ & Put Wakandans on Doom’s Radar

As a gamer who’s been following the Marvel Cinematic Universe since its inception, I can confidently say that the rumors of a third ‘Black Panther‘ movie have me more than just a little hyped! The potential adaptation of the ‘Doomwar’ storyline could truly elevate the franchise to new heights.

Back in November 2022, news surfaced about possible discussions between Ryan Coogler and Kevin Feige regarding a third ‘Black Panther’ film. Although it wasn’t officially announced back then, Denzel Washington later hinted that Coogler was preparing a part for him in the movie.

Even though ‘Wakanda Forever’ didn’t quite match the success of the initial ‘Black Panther’ movie, it left a significant mark by debuting fresh characters and setting Shuri up as the new Black Panther. Her narrative is set to carry on, with speculation that Doctor Doom might be involved in future events.

Prior to the premiere of ‘Wakanda Forever’, audiences anticipated the appearance of Doctor Doom, given the emphasis on vibranium. Although he wasn’t present in that film, speculations are rife that Doctor Doom will make his debut in forthcoming movies such as ‘Fantastic Four: First Steps’ or ‘Doomsday.’ Nonetheless, it’s expected that Doctor Doom’s ties to Wakanda will be further developed.

Information regarding the upcoming “Black Panther” film’s release date isn’t extensive at this point, but if our speculation holds true, we might expect it to drop somewhere within the timeframe between ‘Doomsday’ and ‘Secret Wars.’ This assumption is based on the ‘Doomwar’ storyline.

In this tale, the kingdom of Wakanda is thrown into political turmoil. Queen Ororo, wife of King T’Challa, stands falsely charged with treason by a faction of Wakandan rebels under the influence of Doctor Doom. His ultimate goal is to seize control over Wakanda’s precious vibranium, an almost indestructible metal endowed with extraordinary abilities, which he intends to wield as a weapon.

In a plot to seize power, Doom intends to dethrone both T’Challa and Shuri in order to harness the supernatural abilities linked to Wakanda’s vibranium.

In an unexpected twist, T’Challa renders all vibranium impotent against Doctor Doom’s potential use as a weapon. However, this move creates significant issues for Wakanda, as their technological advancements and economic stability are deeply rooted in the power of vibranium.

Even though Storm and T’Challa aren’t presently featured in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the narrative can still thrive. In fact, Shuri has been instrumental in this particular plotline; given her current role within the MCU, she effectively took on the mantle of Black Panther.

A significant aspect of the narrative unfolds with the inclusion of the Fantastic Four, who, prior to ‘Black Panther 3’s release, will have already made their mark in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

In the upcoming movie “Captain America: Brave New World”, we delve into various world governments attempting to exploit a material known as Adamantium, discovered within the debris of a Celestial. Given that vibranium in Wakanda was assaulted in “Wakanda Forever”, it’s not surprising that Doctor Doom might focus on targeting this nation, considering his need for increased power in preparation for “Doomsday” and “Secret Wars”.

It’s possible that the film could delve into the developing partnership between Wakanda and Talokan, given Namor’s role as a prominent character. Yet, details regarding his character and potential future roles in the storyline are still scarce.

Transforming the “Doomwar” storyline for the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) promises an exhilarating experience, given that Wakanda appears to play a significant part in the franchise’s upcoming projects, as several initiatives are being developed around this remarkable nation.
