NOPEMOVIE star Daniel Kaluuya recently confirmed that he won’t be reprising his role in the upcoming Marvel sequel BlackPantherWakandaForever.
Contrary to the expectation of fans, new reports now reveal that the upcoming Marvel movie Black Panther: Wakanda Forever will not see the return of Daniel Kaluuya who played the role of W’Kabi in the first movie. The latest report comes from Kaluuya's recent interview with Rotten Tomatoes Awards editor, Jacqueline Coley ahead of the release of his next movie, Nope.
Upon completion of the interview, Jacqueline took to her Twitter page to reveal the breaking news. In her tweet, she said that Kaluuya cited "scheduling conflicts with Nope" as the reason why he was unable to reprise his role as the head of security for Wakanda’s Border Tribe. W'Kabi's key role in the Wakanda army also made him the confidant of the titular superhero, played by the late Chadwick Boseman.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Since it was reported that development had begun for Blank Panther: Wakanda Forever, Marvel has played key details close to the vest. As such, fans had erroneously thought that Kaluuya would return to reprise his role. It has however been confirmed that the original cast that includes Lupita Nyong’o, Danai Gurira , Martin Freeman, Letitia Wright, Winston Duke, and Angela Bassett will all return to reprise their roles in the upcoming installment.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is scheduled for release later in the year on November 11. Check out Coley's tweet and the final trailer for Nope down below.
