Popcorn Culture - Review: Black Panther: Wakanda Forever

The death of Chadwick Boseman has left an irreplaceable void at the centre of this Black Panther sequel, and the film addresses it through a collective process of grieving and paying tribute - both in and outside of the world of the movie. We review the movie and talk about how familiar characters like Shuri (Letitia Wright), Queen Ramonda (Angela Bassett), and Okoye (Danai Gurira) are expanded and given layers, and the crackling energy brought on by the long-awaited introduction of Namor (played by Tenoch Huerta).
