One of the biggest pieces of news out of Comic-Con last week was Marvel’s reveal that David Jonsson would be taking over as T’Challa’s son, the new Black Panther in the 2028 sequel Black Panther III. According to a new rumor from insider Daniel Richtman (via CBM), Jonsson is set to make his official MCU debut in 2027's Avengers: Secret Wars. This was to be expected, especially after leaked concept art revealed Battleworld and a new Black Panther last year. We don’t know exactly when we will see the new Black Panther for the first time, but we know it’s coming soon. Avengers: Doomsday arrives in theaters on December 18, 2026; Avengers: Secret Wars hits on December 17, 2027; and Black Panther 3 will be released in theaters on December 15, 2028.
