The first trailer for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever showcases the film's emotion and introduces Namor the Sub-Mariner as a new power player in the MCU. Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige had always promised Marvel Studios would only go to San Diego Comic-Con if they could overdeliver, and the SDCC 2022 panel certainly fulfilled that promise. Feige made a raft of announcements that included the entire MCU Phase 5 slate, and the promise of Avengers: The Kang Dynasty and Avengers: Secret Wars.
But it all ended on an emotional note with the release of the first trailer for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. The first Black Panther was a cultural milestone, the first superhero film to be nominated for Best Picture, and the first film in the MCU to win an Academy Award. Unfortunately, Marvel's plans for the franchise changed after the tragic passing of Chadwick Boseman, the tremendous actor who had played King T'Challa, the Black Panther. Marvel resolved to make Black Panther: Wakanda Forever in honor of his memory and decided not to recast the role.

Marvel understands the significance of this decision, and the first Black Panther 2trailer focuses in on the grief sweeping through the fictional African nation — before ending with an optimistic hint of T'Challa's successor. Here are the secrets and Easter eggs revealed in the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever trailer.
