Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, which is already in theaters, marked the end of Marvel Studios’ Phase Four. It also acted as a tribute to the late Chadwick Boseman who died of colon cancer in 2020. The film chronicles events in Wakanda following the death of its leader. Whereas black panther 2 earned more than 2018 Black Panther on Thursday night, it still failed to live up to the mark that other Phase Four films managed to reach.
The sequel starring Letitia Wright made $28 million during its previews, according to Variety. Black Panther: Wakanda Forever appears to be the sixth-biggest winner on opening night, his name somewhere below Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and Thor: Love and Thunder.

Black Panther 2: Box Office Predictions
While the release of the sequel to Black Panther didn’t win the most on its opening night, can’t say it can’t. There are a number of reasons why Marvel fans would feel it’s their duty to watch what’s happening to the nation of Wakanda. There is high anticipation for the film to earn billions of dollars at the box office.

Remembering that the movie honors the memory of the late Chadwick Boseman, who played the King of Wakanda, would have fans wondering how the nation would behave without his royal presence. Even Namor, the mutant king who opposes the plot, seems to be a hot topic for fans, given the hype director Ryan Coogler has given him.
Maybe black panther 2 may not match opening weekend earnings of Black Panththe opening weekend of r (2018) ($202 million), but hopefully the sequel will exceed Doctor Strange 2is $187 million.
How much did Thor: Love and Thunder earn at the box office?
Thor: Love and Thunder, released in July 2022, was one of Marvel Studios’ Phase Four films. With the return of Chris Hemsworth in a solo film after Thor: Ragnarok (2017) and the expectation of the fans, Thor 4 seemed to do as well as pass $700 million at the box office. The franchise’s apparent latest installment, though criticized by fans, turned out to be nominated for the 2022 People’s Choice Awards.
