Black Panther Spinoff Series Not Happening, Says Marvel TV Chief

Fans of Black Panther‘s Okoye will have to wait a little longer until they can see Danai Gurira back in action: Plans for the Dora Milaje general’s spinoff series have been scrapped. “I love Okoye. I think fans of Okoye are going to be excited to see her come back,” Marvel Studio’s head of streaming, television and animation Brad Winderbaum said. “But I don’t think it’s going to be on a television show. I can’t say where or when, but I think there’s a lot to look forward to.” Back in May of 2021, reports began circulating that Gurira had closed a deal to star in her own origin spinoff series for Disney+. The Wakanda-based series was supposedly in development by Black Panther writer/director Ryan Coogler. Then, two long years ago, Gurira said on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, when pressed about the rumored series, “I have been told… that I can gently allude to this possibility. So I am gently alluding.” But there’d been no updates since.
