Critics may not be able to post reviews until next week, but they’re social media reactions give us a pretty good idea of the reception we can expect. All the film’s success breeds curiosity as to what comes next.
The next time Coogler directs a Marvel movie, assuming he wants to, there will be more characters available to him than ever before. Disney’s purchase of Fox’s movie studio (among other assets) will eventually bring X-Men characters into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. That includes Storm, a character that was once married to T’Challa/Black Panther in the source material.
