Making a Black Panther sequel without the late Boseman Chadwick, of course, proved to be a challenge for director Ryan Coogler, who managed to piece together a story but was forced to discard much of the story from the intended script. He recently revealed what the film was actually going to be about, of which little seems to have crept into the finished production:
“That was the challenge. It was absolutely nothing like what we made. It was going to be a father-son story from the perspective of a father, because the first movie had been a father-son story from the perspective of the sons. “
“In the script, T’Challa was a dad who’d had this forced five-year absence from his son’s life. The first scene was an animated sequence. You hear Nakia [Lupita Nyong’o] talking to Toussaint [the couple’s child, introduced in “Wakanda Forever” in a post-credits sequence]. She says, ‘Tell me what you know about your father.’ You realize that he doesn’t know his dad was the Black Panther. He’s never met him, and Nakia is remarried to a Haitian dude. Then, we cut to reality and it’s the night that everybody comes back from the Blip. You see T’Challa meet the kid for the first time.”
What did you think of Wakanda Forever?
