first trailer of “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” — which debuted at the San Diego Comic-Con in July — featured the mournful strains of Bob Marley’s “No Woman, No Cry” (as covered by Nigerian singer Tems) in memory of Chadwick Boseman, the star of the 2018 blockbuster “Black Panther,” who shockingly died from colon cancer at 43 in 2020.And the new trailer for the much-anticipated Marvel sequel, released on Monday, shows that Wakanda — and the Black Panther — will live on.
