I've heard variations of that floating around for the last six months or so. He has gotten skinner since his Black Panther appearance but I'm going to at least for now assume that it's just due to him not needing to be in superhero frame mode since he finished filming TChalla-related stuff in 2017-18. He'd already slimmed down considerably by the time Black Panther came out and he appeared on SNL, and he's still got about a year (if not more now due to the pandemic) to get bulked up again.
Black Panther or no Black Panther, I just wish Chadwick Boseman all the best because he really looks like he’s going through it. He has come too far and made too much history to start looking like Flavor Flav.
Another thing that caught my eye in one of those articles is Marvel’s alleged plan to make Namor and the people of Atlantis black. It’s probably fake news but I can’t say that I wouldn’t be intrigued by that twist.
I doubt, that they replace him like Terence Howard, because if salary issues.
He‘s the face of the highest grossing franchise besides Avengers. They will work this out
I hope it stays just Black Panther II. Bring back the Roman numerals damn it!
What is 2 in Wakanda Forever?Literally the only thing we know about the movie at this point is that it's gonna be a subtitled sequel; "Black Panther II" is just a placeholder.
That logo is amazing though.
If they did go with numbers as a sequel, I'd actually want to see it in the "Wakandan" writing script they developed.

There never wasn’t a number in the sequel since Iron Man 3 (and Guardians Vol.2 - but for other reasons).
Movie franchises abandoned the idea for giving numbers to sequels, so I expect BP2 won‘t be an exception
I remember (though I can't find any evidence for it now; might've been a since-deleted Twitter post) Coogler was being quoted at SDCC as saying that this not officially being called "II". Like they said, most Marvel sequels are subtitled anyway, so I don't see why this wouldn't follow that mould.
Also, update to the few [not-so-obvious] things we know about the sequel: Beyoncé is gonna be producing the soundtrack (along with a bunch of other Disney projects if negotiations complete as desired.) I have no issues here; I actually really liked what she did for The Lion King last year (much more so than I liked the Black Panther soundtrack) so I'm looking forward to hearing what she does with this. Beyoncé in talks to sign £80million mega deal with Disney for three new projects
I do like Roman numerals.I hope it stays just Black Panther II. Bring back the Roman numerals damn it!
Not even for music?Not interested in Beyonce at all.
