Denzel Washington revealed he's being considered for a role in Black Panther 3, with director Ryan Coogler confirming he's writing a part for the actor. Coogler expressed his dedication to the franchise, sharing he'll continue working on Black Panther films as long as fans will have him.
According to the publication, Marvel producer Nate Moore clarified that no decisions have been made regarding the future of T'Challa or Black Panther 3, and Coogler has yet to start working on the film.
