The first trailer for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever was released, featuring a tribute to Chadwick Boseman, who played king T’Challa in the film.

“I promise you, I can feel his hand on me right now.”

Stars of the films including Chris Pratt, Karen Gillan, Will Poulter, Paul Rudd and Evangeline Lilly appeared in person at the panel.

Mr Feige also revealed that Marvel’s Phase Six would begin on 8 November, 2024, kicking off with a Fantastic Four film, adding that it would end towards the end of 2025 with two new Avengers films.
