Why even call it Black Panther 2?

shareIs that for certain?

Be serious.
Black Panther is a title. There will be a new Black Panther and it wont be T'Challa just as T'Chaka was the Black Panther before T'Challa.
Cast another actor already to play T'challa ,
If they make another character into a new Black Panther we'll never gonna see T'Challa again , also how they're young to explain T'Challa absence?
They're not calling it "Black Panther 2." They're calling it "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever."
shareBut there is no Black Panther in it. He's dead.
shareThe real issue is does Wakanda have any more of the Heart-Shaped Herb to be used to make the potion that gives BP his/her enhanced physicality.
There will be a new Black Panther or even a series of people who assume the role.
It is after all just a title.
My theory is that T'Challa will probably die off screen due to cancer, just as Boseman did. It will basically make him the live action Mar-Vell who died in the comics from cancer as well.
I think Shuri will extract a DNA sample to recreate the effects of the heart-shaped herb. Then there will be a search for the next BP which will be her by the end.
Yep, given Marvel's feminist direction this is likely what will happen.
However, there would be endless scheudenfreude if they replaced T'Challa with a white guy just like in that one race-swap fan drawing. I would never stop laughing at how awesome that would be.
Bucky is the one white man they trust. Bucky will be the new Black Panther now.
share"The one white man they trust?" No idea where you got such a ridiculous idea, but you're wrong. BP has (in comics and on screen) a wide range of people he trusts implicitly. If you're talking about the average Wakandan, the same is true. There's been no indication otherwise.
In any case, Bucky will never be the next BP. . .he's the White Wolf. Which is an identity with its own fairly involved history, and deep ties to Wakanda.
Well, that's like with every James Bond movie ...
