Marvel’s Comic-Con Panel Reveals Ghost Rider and Black Panther 3, Focuses on Doomsday
10 reported4 unconfirmed
Marvel Studios held its San Diego Comic-Con panel in Hall H on Saturday night, drawing fans who camped out for over 30 hours. The 40-minute panel, delayed by 30 minutes, featured Marvel Studios chief Kevin Feige acknowledging Stephen Wacker’s new role as Marvel Comics editor-in-chief. Feige showed a trailer for the “Avengers: Endgame” re-release, “Endgame Encore,” which includes an exclusive sneak peek at “Doomsday.” Two surprise announcements were made: a Ghost Rider movie starring Ryan Gosling and directed by Shawn Levy, and “Black Panther 3” with David Jonsson taking over the title role as T’Challa II. The panel also included a Deadpool cameo in the crowd, though the actor’s identity was not confirmed. The “Doomsday” trailer featured more backstory for Robert Downey Jr.’s villain, Doctor Doom, and showed Doom resurrecting Sentinel robots from the X-Men universe. Both “Ghost Rider” and “Black Panther 3” are slated for 2028, and no X-Men announcements were made.
