The MCU’s Phase Four ends with Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, but that’s not why the sequel is getting an ABC special. ABC announced a TV special in honor of a film that has influenced people’s cultures and minds since its MCU debut.
Director Ryan Coogler had to rewrite Black Panther 2’s script after Chadwick’s death in 2020 since he decided not to recast for the role of T’Challa. The film features an emotional tribute to the king and panther who lives in the hearts of the Wakandans.
Posting on Twitter, ABC announced the TV special featuring the Chadwick Boseman tribute to air this Friday.
The special will consist of unfiltered interviews from the film’s cast, an exclusive scene from the sequel before its premiere, and a tribute to Chadwick Boseman featuring an emotional interview with the late actor’s wife.

The special will also be available for streaming on Hulu globally after it goes live on air. Black Panther 2’s journey through Wakanda and their loss will receive the highlights it deserves in the wake of their king’s death.
TV spots, trailers, and exclusive clips have featured the memorial for Boseman’s T’Challa in the film, heavily highlighting the kingdom and T’Challa’s family’s grief following the loss of the Black Panther we all know and love.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever will be in theaters on November 11, 2022.
