Predicting The Next 12 MCU Movies After Avengers 4

9. Black Panther 2

Yeah, there's just no way Marvel aren't going to reveal a sequel to the $1.3 billion hauling first Black Panther movie. Even without the confirmation that T'Challa will be back, news and rumours are already appearing that take the film's existence as a given. And that's because it's absolutely nailed on to be happening.

Predictions

We're likely to see the fallout of T'Challa opening Wakanda's borders - perhaps with another internal threat borne out of a traditionalist desire to protect the country's identity - as well as the fallout from Avengers 4. Hopefully, part of that will be a second Black Panther, in the shape of Shuri.

The key will be finding a villain to replace Erik Killmonger (even though there are rumours he will return - though let's hope that's as a ghost only), and the suggestion he might be played by Donald Glover is immense.

Evidence?

Kevin Feige spoke in the aftermath of Black Panther to say "there are many, many stories to tell" and admitted he wanted Coogler to return for any potential sequel. The director himself made similarly positive noises and while Feige has recently said that there is "nothing specific to reveal", there "absolutely" are "ideas and a pretty solid direction on where we want to head with the second one."

So that's basically confirmation right there.
