@Source: variety.com
The first trailer for “Eyes of Wakanda,” a four-episode limited animated series executive produced by “Black Panther” director Ryan Coogler, has been released. It will release on Disney+ on Aug. 1.
The upcoming show will be set in Wakanda, the home of the Black Panther that was extensively explored in Coogler’s two Marvel movies. The show will follow “the adventures of brave Wakandan warriors throughout history. In this globe-trotting adventure, the heroes must carry-out dangerous missions to retrieve Vibranium artifacts from the enemies of Wakanda. They are the Hatut Zaraze and this is their story.”
The voice cast includes Winnie Harlow, Cress Williams, Patricia Belcher, Larry Herron, Adam Gold, Lynn Whitfield, Jacques Colimon, Jona Xiao, Isaac Robinson-Smith, Gary Anthony Williams, Zeke Alton, Steve Toussaint and Anika Noni Rose.
The last time fans saw Wakanda was in 2022’s “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,” the sequel to Marvel’s 2018 best picture nominee. That movie introduced the underwater world of Atlantis and featured the returns of Letitia Wright, Lupita Nyong’o, Angela Bassett, Winston Duke, Danai Gurira and Martin Freeman. Wakandans have popped up in other places in the MCU, including an appearance by Ayo, played by Florence Kasumba, in the Disney+ series “The Falcon and The Winter Soldier.” The second-in-command of the Dora Milaje, Ayo first appeared in “Captain America: Civil War.”
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 in 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.” The show is executive produced by Coogler, Brad Winderbaum, Kevin Feige, Louis D’Esposito and Dana Vasquez-Eberhardt.
