Disney+ Kingdom of Wakanda series from director Ryan Coogler 1 1

I have no idea where this series could lead but it's certainly an exciting idea to get away from the US focused events of the majority of MCU

So this also includes Coogler working on other MCU shows.

The Black Panther corner of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is expanding. While deep in development on Black Panther 2, filmmaker Ryan Coogler and his Proximity Media production company managed to ink a new overall deal that will keep Coogler at the House of Mouse for five more years. Announced in a press release by Disney, Coogler's deal includes at least one Black Panther-based Disney+ series focused on the "Kingdom of Wakanda." But that's not all.

 

The release also specifically states Coogler will work closely with Marvel Studios on "select MCU shows for Disney+," suggesting he'll oversee additional shows on top of seeing Kingdom of Wakanda come to fruition.

 

"It’s an honor to be partnering with The Walt Disney Company. Working with them on Black Panther was a dream come true," Coogler and his team say in the press release. "As avid consumers of television, we couldn’t be happier to be launching our television business with Bob Iger, Dana Walden and all the amazing studios under the Disney umbrella. We look forward to learning, growing, and building a relationship with audiences all over the world through the Disney platforms."

 

He adds, "We are especially excited that we will be taking our first leap with Kevin Feige, Louis D’Esposito, Victoria Alonso and their partners at Marvel Studios where we will be working closely with them on select MCU shows for Disney+. We’re already in the mix on some projects that we can't wait to share."
