Just the other day, Marvel Studios President of Production Kevin Feige confirmed that a Doctor Strange movie was in active development. Now, Feige has also confirmed that a Black Panther movie is absolutely in development.
In an interview with BlackTreeTv, Feige said, “In terms of Black Panther, it’s absolutely in development. And when you have something as rich as Wakanda and his back story…and clearly vibraniums been introduced in the universe already…I don’t know when it will be exactly, but it’s certainly…we have plans to bring it to life someday.”
It’s interesting that Feige did not choose to use the word active like he did with Doctor Strange. Could that be a sign that Doctor Strange is further along and a lot closer to reaching the big screen than Black Panther?
