Black Panther 3 casts David Jonsson as T’Challa II, Dec 15, 2028
Black Panther 3 will be released December 15th, 2028. David Jonsson will star as T'Challa's son in the film.
His ascension is set after Shuri dies from measles, correct?
he was the best part of Alien: Romulus
He was great in Alien: Romulus
I know actors routinely play younger, but unless there's another big time skip shouldn't this character be about 10 years old?
Okay, I am generally so out on marvel, but this is really exciting casting
Love this so much. Watched both movies again, in July.
People know him from Industry but I encourage everyone to watch RYE LANE, quietly one of the best romcoms of the last decade
If you haven’t seen Jonsson in Alien:Romulus, you’re missing out. (He was also great in Industry, which is like Euphoria but with finance bros)
This guy BECOMES a character. He just completely assimilates into who he is playing. He blew me AWAY in Alien Romulus and carried that movie. Completely reignited the Alien franchise. He made me SOB in The Long Walk. Stephen King loves him & Coogler APPROACHED HIM b/c of TLW Horror paved the way
I was not gonna pay attention to this movie at all until they said David Jonsson was starring
fantastic choice. Jonsson is a natural.
my favorite ALIEN synthetic (iykyk) is growing up omg 🥹 I love this casting
oh he’s been excellent in everything i’ve seen him in. i hope this doesn’t suck but good for him either way.
The British are really taking all the jobs. 🫣 I’m half joking.
I am listening, I am locked in, and I am INTRIGUED.
All else aside my OCD brain can’t deal with the title inconsistency here. BLACK PANTHER, BLACK PANTHER: WAKANDA FOREVER, BLACK PANTHER III. My head hurts.
'Black Panther 3' has been officially announced • Ryan Coogler is returning to direct • David Jonsson has been cast as T'Challa's son • Letitia Wright will return as Shuri • Releasing in theaters December 15, 2028
No word on who Denzel is playing? Good for David Johnson though, he’s about to blow up and he deserves movie star status, dude’s super talented.
I'm excited about this. I couldn't rewatch the last one. It hurt too much. So hopefully less grieving and more whooping ass
Amazing pick let’s go Wakanda Forever
Chadwick Boseman literally dies and yet Black Panther gets 2 more movies. Mahershala Ali is alive and can’t even get one Blade movie.
Okay, now I know, who will not die in Doomsday/ Secret Wars.
Off-topic: David Jonsson é muito talentoso e carismático. To feliz que ele conseguiu um papel de grande destaque, mesmo que seja pra Marvel.
Did they also just accidentally spoil M'Baku is dead as fuck?
I swear to god I thought that this was already announced and that Coogler was courting Denzel Washington for the bad guy? Did I hallucinate that?
He was excellent in Alien: Romulus - without spoiling it, the character goes through a lot and he went the whole range from heartbreaking to terrifying. Good casting.
A Denzel no hace falta que lo anuncien porque ya se anunció él xD
Cêis tinham que ver como é bonitinho menino Faramir imitando o Pantera Negra com as mãozinhas imitando as garras
David Jonnson is a QUALITY pick. Hell yes
I need a mid-credits or after credits scene or an entire movie w/ Black Panther and Storm being love interests at some point. That would literally heal my nerd spirit. 🤓
Porra eu tava gostando dos rumores que diziam que o Danson Idris seria o filho do T’Challa, mas David Jonsson é uma escolha inspiradíssima! Depois de Alien Romulus eu confio nele pra qualquer papel
oh motherfucker they might have me with david jonsson. damn.
‘BLACK PANTHER 3’ is officially in the works at Marvel Studios. • Ryan Coogler will return to direct. • In theaters on December 15, 2028.
YEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was wondering when this would be announced, but it's great to see this news, and yeah, Ryan Coogler's name is always a plus! And a December release, too?!
I LOVED the first Black Panther and I enjoyed Wakanda Forever for what it was given all the circumstances. So this is one MCU film that I will be seeing, especially since it'll be following T'Challa's son.
Thank you Marvel for being consistent with giving me a birthday movie. 🥹
Marvel Studios used its Comic-Con International presentation to announce David Jonsson as the new Black Panther — the son of Chadwick Boseman’s T’Challa — and reveal that Ryan Gosling will be playing Ghost Rider, both in films set for release in 2028.
What do you mean Ghost Rider hasn't yet appeared in MCU? He did, in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
T’Challa’s son was introduced as a child in 2022’s “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.” That’s a heck of a growth spurt.
cashing in on the Gosling fervor after Project Hail Mary (just search him on tumblr right now)
"The honor is entirely mine." David Jonsson shares what it means to play T'Challa's son in #BlackPanther3. #SDCC
he actually warms my heart sooo much im soooo happy for him AWWWWH my pookie 🤏
This dude is legit. Can’t wait to see him a T’Challa but in the meantime, go watch Rye Lane because it’s bloody great
Such great news to wake up to for a Sunday morning! I have loved watching David Jonsson's performances since season 1 of Industry first came out! He has gone from strength to strength! I'm seated! #BlackPanther3 #SDCC
For all of us that shed tears when we first saw Wakanda in 2018, looking for the lightning to strike again. Y’all that know, know.
So that's "BLACK PANTHER III" dated for *after* "SECRET WARS" with David Jonsson playing a character we last saw as a toddler now as an adult in his 30s. So that's at least one major "Thing that will have changed" about whatever the new reality is.
Wonder if we can get Gwenpool after Secret War…
So is the big soft reboot going to magically age up T'Challa Jr. now? Is he going to hook up with Storm later down the line?
Maybe they transplant the death of T'Chaka to T'Challa Senior in the new timeline?
Given that he's taking up the mantle, I don't like Shuri's odds of making it out of SECRET WARS alive.
'Black Panther 3' is ready to claw its way into theaters. Kevin Feige and director Ryan Coogler revealed that David Jonsson is set to star as the new Black Panther, playing an adult version of the son of T’Challa, portrayed by Chadwick Boseman in the 2018 original. bit.ly/4h2WVO1
This is a great choice, he is a good actor
Excellent choice. Jonsson was academy worthy in Long Walk
Me, after reading this announcement:
Hijo llamado T'Challa también. Es decir, un recast/reboot del personaje de toda la vida de Dios, pero con unos cuantos malabares absurdos de por medio.
Iba a bromear diciendo que esto es un clásico caso de lore comiquero innecesariamente complicado... Y luego he caído en que esto es literalmente el transfondo actual de Kraven en los cómics.
After Romulus and Long Walk….uh yes
¿Cómo van a justificar que crezca tan rápido?
I liked him in Rye Lane
AHHHHH shoutout to David Jonsson. he’s really been doing his thang!
Dos películas ha durado el personaje femenino antes de que lo sustituyan.
This is such a good choice
SDCC ‘26: David Jonsson is the MCU’s new BLACK PANTHER Ryan Coogler will direct Black Panther 3, hitting theaters in December 2028.
Was just talking w friends about what an amazing actor David is. What a great pick!
He's gonna be soooooo good. Awesome casting.
Incredibly exciting casting news for the new Black Panther movie. If you've been paying attention, David Jonsson has quickly become one of the most promising actors of his generation, between his outstanding work in movies like Alien: Romulus and The Long Walk.
I thought David was brilliant as Peter McVries in The Long Walk. A great performance —equal parts pathos, compassion, fear, and humor. I can’t wait to see what he does as Black Panther.
He was incredible in The Long Walk!!!
Is this the first superhero trilogy ever, where each movie has a new protagonist picking up the mantle?
