It’s official. According to Deadline, we will see more of Wakanda as Marvel Studios has officially confirmed that Black Panther 3 is in the works.
This announcement comes with the bittersweet news that longtime Marvel executive and producer Nate Moore will leave the studio in early 2025 but will continue to produce the franchise’s third installment.
Moore, who has been a pivotal figure at Marvel since 2010, played an instrumental role in the success of 2018’s Black Panther, which grossed over $1.3 billion globally, earned seven Oscar nominations, and secured three Academy Awards.
“Nearly everything I know about producing I’ve learned from my time at Marvel Studios,” Moore shared. “I feel lucky to have worked with a group of people who love filmmaking and storytelling as much as my Marvel colleagues and the cast and crew of our films. But I couldn’t be more excited to apply my experience and passion for film towards theatrical movies in all genres, including returning to the world of Wakanda for Black Panther 3.”
Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige and co-president Louis D’Esposito praised Moore’s immense contributions to the studio: “Nate is a fantastic executive and colleague as well as a wonderful friend to all of us here at Marvel Studios. He has been a core member of our team since 2010, and his influence will continue to reverberate in our storytelling. Although we’ll miss him a great deal, we look forward to watching what he does next while also having the good fortune of working with him in a new way on our next Black Panther movie.”
Moore will remain with Marvel through mid-March 2025, seeing the release of Captain America: Brave New World—a film he is also producing—before officially transitioning to broader creative ventures outside of Marvel Studios.
