Black Panther: Kingdoms at War is an upcoming American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character Black Panther. Produced by Mob Productions and distributed by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures, it is a continuation of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022), the seventh film in the Mob Cinematic Universe (MCU), and the second film of Phase Two. The film is directed by Nia DaCosta, who co-wrote the screenplay with Marcus Cole, and produced by Freddie Goodwin. It stars Letitia Wright as Shuri / Black Panther, alongside Lupita Nyong'o, Winston Duke, Danai Gurira, Tenoch Huerta Mejía, Michaela Coel, Florence Kasumba, Dominique Thorne, Martin Freeman, and Mads Mikkelsen.

The film follows Shuri as she attempts to prevent a war between Wakanda and Talokan after coordinated attacks cause the two kingdoms to turn against one another. Their conflict is secretly manipulated by Latverian ruler Victor von Doom, who seeks an experimental vibranium reactor capable of stabilizing matter damaged by incursions between realities.

Development began in late 2024 as Mob Productions expanded Wakanda's role in Phase Two. DaCosta entered negotiations to direct in January 2025 and was confirmed in March, with Cole joining her as co-writer. Principal photography began in April 2025 at Trilith Studios in Atlanta and continued in South Africa, Puerto Rico, London, and Iceland before concluding that November. Additional photography took place between February and March 2026. By July, the film was in the final stages of post-production.

Black Panther: Kingdoms at War is scheduled to be released in the United States on September 24, 2026.

Premise[edit | edit source]

Following Wakanda's increased involvement in international affairs, several governments demand access to the country's vibranium resources. Shuri attempts to protect Wakanda without returning it to complete isolation, while also continuing to grieve the deaths of T'Challa and Queen Ramonda.

Relations between Wakanda and the underwater kingdom of Talokan deteriorate after attacks on both nations appear to have been carried out using the other's technology. As Shuri and Namor prepare for the possibility of war, Victor von Doom, the ruler of Latveria, offers to act as a neutral mediator.

Doom is secretly manipulating both kingdoms in an attempt to obtain the Heart of Bashenga, an experimental vibranium reactor capable of stabilizing physical matter affected by the temporal damage created during the events of Deadpool 2 (2026).

Cast[edit | edit source]

  • Letitia Wright as Shuri / Black Panther: The princess of Wakanda, a scientist, and the current Black Panther. DaCosta said the film examines Shuri's struggle to balance her responsibilities as Wakanda's protector with her reluctance to become its sole political and spiritual symbol.[1]
  • Lupita Nyong'o as Nakia: A former member of the War Dogs and T'Challa's former partner who lives in Haiti with their son, Toussaint. Nakia returns to Wakanda after the conflict with Talokan threatens Toussaint's future.[2]
  • Winston Duke as M'Baku: The leader of the Jabari tribe and Wakanda's representative on the tribal council. M'Baku favors a military response after several Wakandan settlements are attacked.[3]
  • Danai Gurira as Okoye: A former general of the Dora Milaje and leader of the Midnight Angels. Okoye investigates the source of the attacks while operating outside Wakanda's official military command.[4]
  • Tenoch Huerta Mejía as Namor: The ruler of Talokan and a mutant capable of breathing underwater and flying. Namor believes Wakanda has violated the alliance formed between the kingdoms and prepares Talokan for war.[5]
  • Michaela Coel as Aneka: A former Dora Milaje warrior and member of the Midnight Angels who accompanies Okoye during her investigation.[6]
  • Florence Kasumba as Ayo: The general of the Dora Milaje and commander of Wakanda's primary defense forces.[6]
  • Dominique Thorne as Riri Williams / Ironheart: A young inventor who is invited to Wakanda to help analyze technology recovered from the attacks. Her armor is upgraded using limited Wakandan resources.[7]
  • Martin Freeman as Everett K. Ross: A former CIA operative and ally of Wakanda who investigates an international coalition attempting to obtain vibranium.[8]
  • Mads Mikkelsen as Victor von Doom / Doctor Doom: The ruler of Latveria, a scientist, and a sorcerer who presents himself as a neutral mediator between Wakanda and Talokan. Doom intends to obtain the Heart of Bashenga and use it to stabilize matter from colliding realities.[9]

Alex Livinalli and Mabel Cadena reprise their respective roles as the Talokanil warriors Attuma and Namora. Isaach de Bankolé, Connie Chiume, and Danny Sapani return as members of Wakanda's tribal council. Divine Love Konadu-Sun appears as Toussaint, the son of T'Challa and Nakia.

Goodwin said that several additional performers had not been announced because their appearances were connected to the film's ending and the wider Phase Two storyline.[10]

Production[edit | edit source]

Development[edit | edit source]

Following the release of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever in November 2022, discussions began regarding a continuation focused on Shuri's new role as Black Panther. Mob Productions acquired the right to continue the characters' story as part of its expanded shared universe.[11]

Early development occurred alongside work on Phase One. Goodwin wanted Wakanda to become one of the principal political and technological powers within the MCU rather than appearing only in Black Panther-focused films.[12]

By October 2024, Mob Productions had begun developing a film under the working title Black Panther 3. The studio considered several storylines, including a conflict between Wakanda and Latveria and a direct continuation of the alliance between Shuri and Namor.[13]

The filmmakers ultimately combined the ideas, with the central story depicting Doom manipulating Wakanda and Talokan into a war. Goodwin said the conflict allowed the film to continue the consequences of Wakanda Forever while introducing Latveria into the wider Phase Two storyline.[14]

Nia DaCosta entered negotiations to direct in January 2025. Goodwin had been impressed by her handling of large ensembles and the combination of political, science-fiction, and horror elements in her previous work.[15]

DaCosta was confirmed as director in March 2025 and joined Marcus Cole in writing the screenplay. She also received an executive producer credit, while Goodwin served as the film's principal producer.[16]

The official title, Black Panther: Kingdoms at War, was announced during the Mob Productions Showcase on June 13, 2025. Goodwin confirmed that the film would be released on September 24, 2026, as the second film of Phase Two.[17]

DaCosta described the title as referring not only to Wakanda and Talokan, but also to the conflict between monarchies, democratic governments, corporations, and individuals attempting to control resources after the public discovery of vibranium.[18]

Writing[edit | edit source]

DaCosta and Cole began writing the screenplay in early 2025. The writers wanted to continue Shuri and Namor's alliance without ignoring the hostility and casualties created by their earlier conflict.[19]

The film begins after an extended period of peace between Wakanda and Talokan. Their agreement remains secret from most of the world, creating confusion when evidence of Talokanil activity is discovered during attacks on Wakandan facilities.[20]

Shuri was written as a leader who understands the scientific and military importance of vibranium but remains uncomfortable with the religious expectations attached to the Black Panther. DaCosta said Shuri considers the mantle a responsibility rather than a source of personal identity.[21]

M'Baku represents the position that Wakanda's repeated attempts at diplomacy have made it vulnerable. His disagreements with Shuri concern how the country should respond to attacks rather than an attempt to remove her as Black Panther.[22]

Namor's storyline focuses on his fear that Talokan will eventually be discovered and invaded. Doom manipulates this fear by manufacturing evidence that Wakanda has provided foreign governments with information about Talokan's location.[23]

The Heart of Bashenga was created for the film as an experimental reactor developed from research conducted by Shuri and Riri Williams. The device can temporarily repair vibranium structures damaged at a molecular level.[24]

Doom intends to modify the reactor to stabilize objects affected by incursions. The film establishes that he has become aware of damage between realities following the destruction of the Time Ripper in Deadpool 2.[25]

DaCosta said Doom is not the visible cause of every conflict in the film. Existing distrust between Wakanda, Talokan, and foreign governments allows him to manipulate events without controlling every participant.[26]

The screenplay was revised during pre-production to increase Nakia's role and further explore the effect that Toussaint's existence has on Wakanda's royal succession.[27]

Riri Williams was included because of her previous relationship with Shuri and her experience constructing a vibranium detection device. Her role also provides a connection between Wakanda's traditional institutions and younger independent inventors.[28]

The film's ending leads into the broader incursion storyline of Phase Two. Goodwin said it provides Doom with one component necessary for the machine he later completes in Avengers: Incursion (2028).[29]

Casting[edit | edit source]

Wright was expected to return as Shuri when development began. Mob Productions formally confirmed her involvement in March 2025 alongside DaCosta's appointment.[1]

Nyong'o, Duke, Gurira, Huerta Mejía, Coel, and Kasumba were announced to reprise their roles in April. DaCosta said the film was designed as an ensemble rather than a story focused exclusively on Shuri.[6]

Huerta Mejía said Namor's relationship with Shuri remains defined by mutual respect and distrust. He described Namor as willing to cooperate with Wakanda only while he believes the alliance protects Talokan.[5]

Thorne was confirmed to return as Riri Williams in May 2025. The film marks her first theatrical appearance in the franchise since Wakanda Forever.[7]

Freeman joined the cast in June, reprising his role as Everett Ross. His storyline concerns the international response to Wakanda and the activities of intelligence agencies seeking vibranium.[8]

Mikkelsen was announced as Doom during the Mob Productions Showcase on June 13, 2025. He previously portrayed the character in Doctor Doom (2025) and had signed a multi-film agreement with the studio.[9]

DaCosta said Doom appears throughout the film rather than being reserved for a cameo or post-credits scene. His public role as Latveria's ruler allows him to participate directly in diplomatic negotiations with Wakanda and Talokan.[30]

Alex Livinalli and Mabel Cadena were subsequently confirmed to return as Attuma and Namora. Livinalli said Attuma supports war with Wakanda and increasingly questions Namor's willingness to negotiate with the surface world.[31]

Design and pre-production[edit | edit source]

Pre-production began in March 2025 at Trilith Studios in Atlanta. Production designer Hannah Beachler returned to oversee the design of Wakanda and Talokan while developing Latveria's visual identity.[32]

DaCosta wanted each kingdom to possess a distinct architectural and technological language. Wakanda combines vibranium with organic African design, Talokan uses structures shaped by water pressure and marine life, and Latveria presents advanced machinery within medieval European architecture.[33]

Several new Wakandan locations were constructed, including the River Province capital, the underground chamber containing the Heart of Bashenga, and a rebuilt royal council hall.[34]

The Talokan sets were expanded beyond those created for Wakanda Forever. The production constructed residential districts, a military chamber, and an underwater temple associated with Namor's ancestors.[35]

Doom's Latverian embassy was designed to appear restrained and diplomatic when compared with his castle. Visual elements from Doctor Doom were incorporated into the sets, including mechanical patterns and green lighting hidden beneath traditional surfaces.[36]

Costume designer Ruth E. Carter returned to create the film's costumes. Shuri receives an updated Black Panther suit with reinforced silver sections intended for underwater combat.[37]

The Midnight Angels' armor was redesigned to reduce its size and improve movement during practical stunt work. Talokan's warriors received additional ceremonial and military costumes reflecting their preparation for war.[37]

Doom wears formal Latverian clothing during most diplomatic scenes. His armored appearance incorporates the design established in his solo film with modifications intended to protect him against vibranium weapons and underwater pressure.[38]

Filming[edit | edit source]

Principal photography began on April 14, 2025, at Trilith Studios under the working title Two Kingdoms.[39]

Filming initially focused on interiors set in Wakanda, including Shuri's laboratory, the royal council chamber, and the Heart of Bashenga facility.[40]

Location filming began in South Africa in June. Cape Town and surrounding coastal areas were used for Wakandan settlements and several sequences depicting conflict along the country's borders.[41]

The production moved to Puerto Rico in July for surface scenes associated with Talokan. Underwater material was filmed in controlled tanks and combined with digital environments during post-production.[42]

Filming in London took place between August and September and included scenes set at the United Nations and Latverian diplomatic facilities. Mikkelsen completed most of his principal photography during this portion of the schedule.[43]

A smaller unit filmed landscapes in Iceland for sequences involving territory damaged by an early incursion. The location does not represent Wakanda or Talokan and was described as the film's first visual indication of the wider Phase Two threat.[44]

DaCosta and cinematographer Autumn Durald Arkapaw used different aspect ratios and camera movements for the kingdoms. Wakandan scenes emphasize stable compositions, Talokan sequences use more fluid movement, and scenes involving Doom gradually become more symmetrical as his control increases.[45]

Several large battle sequences were filmed using practical water effects, partial sets, and stunt performers before being expanded digitally. DaCosta said she wanted the conflict to remain geographically understandable despite involving air, land, and underwater forces.[46]

Principal photography concluded on November 21, 2025.[47] Wright described the production as physically demanding because of the amount of underwater and wire work required for Shuri's fight scenes.[48]

Additional photography began in February 2026 and concluded in March. The work included expanded scenes involving Nakia and Toussaint, alterations to the final battle, and additional material connecting Doom to the incursion storyline.[49]

Post-production[edit | edit source]

Post-production began while principal photography was underway. Catrin Hedström and Michael P. Shawver edited the film.[50]

An early assembly reportedly ran for approximately three hours. DaCosta said the extended cut contained additional political material but that several scenes repeated information already communicated through the central characters.[51]

The final theatrical version has a running time of 144 minutes, including the credits.[52]

Visual-effects vendors included Industrial Light & Magic, Wētā FX, Framestore, and Mob Digital. Their work included the underwater environments of Talokan, the armies of both kingdoms, Shuri's suit, Doom's armor, and the molecular effects created by the Heart of Bashenga.[53]

DaCosta said the visual effects were approximately 90 percent complete by June 2026. Final work focused on underwater lighting, the third-act battle, and a sequence depicting matter destabilizing during an incursion.[54]

The film received a PG-13 rating for intense sequences of violence, action, thematic material, and brief language.[55]

Music[edit | edit source]

Ludwig Göransson returned to compose the film's score after working on the previous Black Panther films.[56]

Göransson conducted research into musical traditions from southern Africa, Mesoamerica, and Eastern Europe to represent Wakanda, Talokan, and Latveria.[57]

The score retains themes associated with Shuri, T'Challa, Namor, and Wakanda while introducing a Latverian theme built around low brass, mechanical percussion, and a male choir.[58]

DaCosta said the music does not present either Wakanda or Talokan as the villainous side of the conflict. Their themes are gradually combined as the characters discover that the war has been manipulated.[59]

The soundtrack album is scheduled to be released digitally by Hollywood Records and Mob Music on September 18, 2026.[60]

Marketing[edit | edit source]

The film's title and initial logo were revealed by Goodwin during the Mob Productions Showcase on June 13, 2025. The logo depicted the Black Panther emblem divided between Wakandan purple, Talokanil blue, and a narrow green section associated with Latveria.[17]

The first footage was shown privately to exhibitors in December 2025. Reports described the presentation as focusing on the political tension between Shuri and Namor and ending with the reveal of Doom entering Wakanda's throne room.[61]

A teaser trailer was released on February 8, 2026, during Super Bowl LX. It used a slowed arrangement of "War" by Edwin Starr and depicted attacks on Wakanda and Talokan without revealing who was responsible.[62]

The teaser received 146 million views across online platforms during its first 24 hours. Discussion focused on Mikkelsen's appearance as Doom and the first footage of Shuri's updated Black Panther suit.[63]

The first theatrical poster was released on May 8. It depicts Shuri and Namor facing away from one another as the armies of Wakanda and Talokan assemble beneath them. Doom is positioned in the background between the two kingdoms.[64]

An official trailer was released on May 29 and provided a more detailed explanation of the conflict. It revealed the Heart of Bashenga and confirmed that Doom was serving as the official mediator between Wakanda and Talokan.[65]

Mob Productions released a behind-the-scenes featurette titled Three Kingdoms on June 26. The video focused on the production design, costumes, and cultural influences used for Wakanda, Talokan, and Latveria.[66]

The final trailer was released on July 24, two months before the film's theatrical release. It emphasized Shuri and Namor's attempts to prevent their armies from entering a conflict neither can completely control.[67]

Marketing partnerships include promotional material in Fortnite, Marvel Rivals, and several Mob Productions games. Hasbro announced action figures based on Black Panther, Namor, Okoye, Ironheart, and Doom.[68]

Advance ticket sales are scheduled to begin in August 2026.[69]

Release[edit | edit source]

Black Panther: Kingdoms at War is scheduled to be released in the United States on September 24, 2026.[17]

The film will be released in IMAX, Dolby Cinema, 4DX, ScreenX, and standard theatrical formats.[70] Selected IMAX presentations will feature an expanded aspect ratio during the battles in Wakanda and Talokan.[71]

It will be the second film of Phase Two, following Deadpool 2 in May 2026.[72]

The film was initially considered for a November 2026 release before Mob Productions moved it to September to provide additional space between it and the studio's other releases.[73]

A premiere is expected to take place in Los Angeles in September, followed by events in Johannesburg, Mexico City, and London.[74]

Future[edit | edit source]

Mikkelsen is expected to reprise his role as Doom in later Phase Two films, including Avengers: Incursion and The Fantastic Four: Doomworld.[75]

Goodwin said the film's ending would significantly affect Wakanda and Talokan's positions within the MCU and that neither kingdom would return to its previous level of secrecy.[76]

Wright, Duke, Gurira, Huerta Mejía, and other members of the cast are expected to appear in future MCU projects, although Mob Productions has not announced a direct sequel.[77]
