As a seasoned gamer of the Marvel Universe, I must admit that the recent news about Denzel Washington joining Black Panther 3 has sent a wave of excitement coursing through me. With years spent immersed in the intricate web of stories and characters that make up the MCU, it’s not every day that we get to witness such an esteemed talent as Denzel Washington step into the fold.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe keeps audiences on their toes, thanks to projects arriving in theaters and streaming with a Disney+ subscription. The fandom who spent years watching the Marvel movies in order have seen all sorts of A-listers join the fun in on the fun. The internet exploded when Denzel Washington revealed that Ryan Coogler was writing a part for him in Black Panther 3. Following this thrilling update about the upcoming Marvel movie, Washington shared why he’s excited to do it. He also humorously responded to the discourse online, saying “I guess it’s news or something.”

At this moment, it’s unclear how Washington will play a role in the upcoming third Black Panther film, as creator Ryan Coogler appears to be in the initial stages of scriptwriting and development. Given the immense popularity of the franchise within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, his participation is certainly exciting news. In a recent video on Hey U Guys’ TikTok, Washington himself discussed his connection with Wakanda, hinting:

I haven’t a clue about it yet, as he merely mentioned he’d be composing something. It seems to have the Ryan Coogler touch, you know? He shared some details with me, and I responded, “Whatever it is, I support you wholeheartedly and will read it.” To be honest, I didn’t inquire further, but he approached me about it. Yesterday, I called him to apologize for not knowing the circumstances, saying, “I didn’t realize it would unfold like this.” It appears to be some form of news or announcement, but I don’t know the specifics – whether it’s a single line, scene, or something larger. However, because it’s Ryan and I admire him and his wife, I promised to participate, as I said, “Whatever it is, I’m in.

Here it is. It appears Washington was taken aback by the rapid spread of his enigmatic remarks concerning Black Panther 3. He also acknowledges that he doesn’t possess much information about his part in the production. Interestingly, he seems content to fulfill whatever role Ryan Coogler requires, regardless of its size. However, it’s likely that the esteemed actor won’t be utilized in such a minimal capacity.

Marvel is renowned for its stringent security measures, striving to safeguard against leaks and maintain confidentiality. One can speculate about how authorities might have reacted if Denzel Washington had announced his involvement in Black Panther, potentially causing a massive online stir. However, the actor/director/producer appears genuinely taken aback by the magnitude of the response to his casting revelation.

In both Black Panther 2 and its prequel, a stellar lineup of renowned actors graced the screen, with stars such as Forest Whitaker, Michael B. Jordan, Lupita Nyong’o, Sterling K. Brown, and Angela Bassett among them. Given that Angela Bassett’s role as Ramonda comes to an end following her character’s demise, this seems like the ideal moment to introduce another cherished talent, such as Denzel Washington.

At this point, it remains uncertain when Black Panther 3 is scheduled for release in cinemas. In the meantime, you might want to look up the movie release dates for 2025.
