Martin spoke to Collider and reassured his return to the
franchise. He said, “Yeah, I am doing the second Black Panther. I’m going to be
speaking to Ryan Coogler soon about what shape that’s going to look like. I
have no idea about the script [so] I don’t know what’s going to happen.”
Freeman also talked about the late Chadwick Boseman and how
the world without him was unimaginable. He also said, his sudden death shocked
every person. “Oh, okay, I could see a world where there’s no Black Panther
then, because how can you do a Black Panther without Black Panther?” So, I
still don’t know what that’s going to look like.”

He further added, “And no, obviously, before Chad
died, the idea of doing it without him would have been a stupid idea. It would
have been crazy. It was very shocking and still is very, very strange, that he
is not here. So, I’m as curious as you are to see what that will look like and
I find out quite soon. All I know is that I’m in it.”
Chadwick Boseman portrayed the role of Black Panther in MCU’s
four films – Captain America: Civil War, the standalone Black Panther,
Avengers: Endgame, and Avengers: Infinity War. Black Panther was the origin
story of T’Challa, played by Boseman.
