Black Panther, a superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character is set for release on February 16, 2018. Avid Marvel fans and movie enthusiasts are also aware of this and are awaiting the release date with anticipation. What fewer people know is that this is not the only Black Panther movie planned for release next year.
Cort Lane, Marvel’s Vice President of animation, made a big announcement at the New York Comic Con last weekend. He wanted to let everyone know that LEGO is currently working on an animated version of this character and is planning to release a movie called Black Panther: Trouble in Wakanda.
Some of the former LEGO movies have been an instant hit following their theatrical release, including The LEGO Movie, The LEGO Batman Movie, and The LEGO Ninja Movie. However, the current plans are that this new LEGO movie will not have a theatrical release. Instead, it will go straight to DVD, just like the various LEGO DC Super Heroes: Justice League movies and LEGO Marvel Super Heroes: Maximum Overload.
As yet, very few details have been released about this new LEGO movie. Who will direct and star in the movie has not yet been revealed. However, there are rumors that ‘Black Panther: Trouble in Wakanda’ could well be released around the same time as either the ‘Black Panther’ live-action movie in February or in May when ‘Avengers: Infinity War’ is released.
