On July 23, Comic-Con 2022 was held, an event that was held in San Diego, California, in the United States, where, as usual, Marvel Studios took the opportunity to share the progress of its upcoming brand new productions. .
One of the projects that stood out the most was the launch of the first official trailer for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, the long-awaited sequel to the film starring the late Chadwick Boseman. The advance was very revealing by showing that it will integrate two Mexicans into its cast and caused a furore by showing the first images of what is presumed to be the new Black Panther.
In the teaser of little more than two minutes, to the rhythm of the song No Woman, No Cry, the absence of the beloved actor Chadwick Boseman was felt and could be seen in the tribute that appears in the images. Another of the things that caused the most commotion was the integration into the cast of the Mexicans Tenoch Huerta as Namor and Mabel Cadena as Namora.
Both were presented at Comic-Con on July 23, where the Mexican actor who will play Namor, the submariner, celebrated with the entire cast and spoke about the diversity that exists in Hollywood.

I want to say something quick about inclusion. I come from a neighborhood and, thanks to her, I am here. I wouldn’t be if it weren’t for inclusion. Many children in the neighborhood are watching us and dreaming of being here and they are going to achieve it.

With this, both actors join the list of Mexicans who, like Salma Hayek, Joaquín Cosío and Tony Dalton, have appeared in productions of the Marvel Cinematic World (MCU). Tenoch did not miss the opportunity to thank the work of all countrymen and Latin Americans, since he assures that they were the ones who paved the way for them to reach this moment.

But, without a doubt, what most drove everyone crazy fans It was the brief appearance of the character who, it seems, will be the new king and protector of Wakanda. Although the identity of the actor who will play him is still unknown, it is rumored that the successor to the throne will be Shuri, the princess of Wakanda and sister of T’Challa, played by Letitia Wright.
Assuring that the absence of Chadwick Boseman will be something to overcome, the writer and director Ryan Coogler said that they will do everything possible because the public likes this sequel, which will have its theatrical release on November 11, 2022.
