Taking the words seriously, Washington has now decided to portray one of the characters in the Marvel movie.

And so now, let he who was awarded be awarded."
Although Marvel has not officially announced the third installment of Black Panther, the studios have seven untitled films scheduled between 2026 and 2028.
