The Big Picture Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan have collaborated on a host of projects, including the films of the Black Panther and Creed series. Their latest outing, though, is an untitled IMAX "event film," for Warner Bros. that will star Jordan, and audiences will get to find out all about the film next year, as Warners has set a release date for the project of March 7, 2025, according to Deadline.
Warner Bros. reportedly won the rights to the film following an intense bidding war among Hollywood's top studios, an unsurprising fact given Coogler's recent successes. While no other casting has been announced, this could potentially change soon as the untitled project is reportedly set to begin filming this April in New Orleans.
Coogler is likely best known, though, for his work directing the 2018 MCU film Black Panther. The film starred the late Chadwick Boseman as the titular Wakandan superhero T'Challa and Jordan as Eric Kilmonger, also known as N'Jadaka, who battled T'Challa for control of Wakanda. Black Panther brought in over $1 billion at the global box office, and remains one of the highest-grossing films helmed by a Black director.
