Black Panther 2was notably the biggest Marvel launch of the year, and as such, was universally and unilaterally loved. With an incredible story, perfect casting, and a groundbreaking antihero entry, this MCU movie did what the rest of the Phase 4 filler projects failed to do – raise the bar even higher for the Marvel fandom’s expectations. The sequel film definitely does justice to Chadwick Boseman and his immortalized legacy, and in its somber humility, soars into stratospheric success, demolishing box-office records on its accelerating way to the very top.

The success ofBlack Panther 2has ignited a fiery debate over the clashing re-emergence of the two CBM franchises — Marvel with its latest entry and DC withBlack Adam. Both these films helped save the flailing studios with their super-powered launch. But whileBlack Adamfalls behind with its predictable and stoic plot, struggling to cross the finish line in its fourth weekend with a meager earning of $8.6 million,Black Panther 2on the other hand, already shows a durable promise with its poignant plot that has as much substance as qualitative attributes that make a perfect superhero movie.
Black Panther 2Redefines Marvel Franchise’s Success
While it is definitely not surprising to learn aboutBlack Panther: Wakanda Forever‘s new record-breaking success, the disgruntling pause in filming in 2021, and the wave of controversies plaguing the fateful film did put Black Panther’s MCU future to the test. Ryan Coogler, Kevin Feige, and Nate Moore — the holy triad of director, President, and producer had declared at the very beginning of filming that the sequel to the 2018Black Panthersolo entry would be framed as a tribute to honor the late actor,Chadwick Boseman, after his unforeseen and premature death in August of 2020.

Having made that clear, the triad proceeded with crafting a story that uniquely blended the politics of the film, brought to the forefront a new Mesoamerican nation, and clashed with the duality of the tragedy on screen and off, all while forwarding the narrative of Black Panther, Ironheart, and Namor in mainstream MCU. Ryan Coogler’s brilliant mind delivered a poignant end product that was perfectly balanced in all its elements — healing the audience while also leaving an imprint of so much more to come.
