Disney+ shared the trailer on its Instagram handle on Monday. The last time fans got to see Wakanda was in 2022’s ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,’ the sequel to Marvel’s 2018 best picture nominee.

According to the outlet, the ‘Wakanda’ series is the first in a multi-year overall TV deal with Coogler’s Proximity production company and The Walt Disney Company, with other TV projects currently in development for the MCU.

‘Eyes of Wakanda’ is helmed by director/executive producer Todd Harris, who was first a storyboard artist on ‘Black Panther’ and ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’, then as an illustrator on ‘Sinners’ before directing ‘Eyes of Wakanda.’ (ANI)
