Black Panther: Wakanda Forever in the Marvel timeline
One of the questions that gripped the fans is where the story takes place in timeline of the Marvel universe. Typically the platform catalogs MCU movies in chronological order and Black Panther has been sandwiched between Moon Knight And She Hulk: Attorney At Law. Consequently, as reported ScreenRantthe film should be set in 2025. In fact, the plot takes place after more than a year since Avengers: Endgamewhich should be set in October 2023. So the position in the catalog could be a real clue.
Wakanda Forever is also the last film of the so-called Stage 4 of the Marvel universe. The fifth is starting with Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantummaniato be released in mid-February 2023.
But a definitive answer to any doubt will come only with the encyclopedia The Marvel Cinematic Universe An Official Timeline. Alias the “definitive, director-approved guide” to the MCU and its timeline that will “answer the most important questions: what happened, when, where and why.” Since the launch of the MCU in 2008 with Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk, the timeline of the Marvel universe has expanded so rapidly between worlds, timelines and characters that yes, a guide is now indispensable for true fans.
