Nigerian film distributor FilmOne Entertainment has announced that the premiere will take place in Lagos.
The premiere took place in cooperation with The Walt Disney Company, FilmOne Entertainment and the Africa International Film Festival (AFRIFF).
Shuri (Leetitia Wright) is rumored to be wearing a black panther costume, and Wakanda will face danger from some unexpected foes in the highly-anticipated sequel.
Many popular characters from the first film will appear in the sequel, which should be another blockbuster.
Due to Covid-19 and complaints of minor injuries on set, the production process was delayed for over a year.
After months of rumors of a remake of King T’halla, played by Chadwick Boseman, who died of cancer the year before, production began in August 2020.
