Marvel formally introduced David Jonsson as the next Black Panther during its Hall H presentation at Comic-Con. Franchise director Ryan Coogler confirmed that the actor will portray the adult son of T’Challa (played by the late Chadwick Boseman) and Lupita Nyong’o’s Nakia, whose existence was revealed at the end of 2022’s Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. The character was introduced as Toussaint before sharing that his Wakandan name was also T’Challa.
Coogler told the audience that the young prince “grows up” and “comes of age” in the third film. Jonsson joined Coogler, Letitia Wright, and Winston Duke onstage, thanking the franchise’s cast and creative team while declining to disclose details about his performance.
Black Panther III will be Ryan Coogler’s third film in the MCU franchise. Marvel has scheduled the sequel to open in theaters on Dec. 15, 2028, but has not revealed additional plot details or explained how the story will age T’Challa and Nakia’s son into adulthood.
