So with the film officially happening, what do fans know so far about the upcoming installment? Here's everything to know about Black Panther 3, including the cast, director and more. Warning: Spoilers ahead for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever!

Denzel Washington will appear in the third installment of the groundbreaking franchise, according to director Ryan Coogler's recent confirmation.

Few movie studios are quite as secretive as Marvel. The MCU is a major franchise, and the attempts to keep spoilers from leaking are quite significant. This made it more than a little wild when Denzel Washington just came out and said he would be in Black Panther 3, a movie that Marvel had never even confirmed it was making.
