We don’t know much of what’s coming up in Wakanda, but we do know one thing: We’re thankfully getting more of Danai Gurira in the MCU.
The Hollywood Reporter confirmed she’ll be returning to her role as Okoye in the upcoming
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, that’s set to come out on July 8, 2022.
This news came in a profile on Hollywood’s most powerful lawyers, where
THR reported that her attorney Jamie Mandelbaum brokered a deal for her to appear in both projects.

Black Panther character in The Falcon And The Winter Soldier, so it shouldn’t come as much of a surprise that we’ll see more of Okoye. As for the
Bad guys in superhero movies have become forgettable and disposable, but M.O.D.O.K. has found a way to cross genres and mediums to become the only Marvel villain who matters.
Our Verdict
Classy work from director and cast, but an anti-climactic second half doesn’t quite knit together the incident and intrigue.
First, we had David Fincher’s take on Gone Girl. Then it was the slightly-less-good The Girl On The Train. And now comes The Woman In The Window, the latest bestseller-adapted, female-focused, A-list mystery thriller to land on our screens.
Joe Wright’s long-delayed take on A.J. Finn’s novel was hampered first by re-shoots and the takeover of original backers Twentieth Century Fox. Then came the pandemic, which led to new owners Disney offering it up to Netflix.
