Eyes of Wakanda, a new animated series andBlack Pantherspin-off, is set to link up with the wider MCU in a big way, and across different time periods, according to Marvel’s TV boss Brad Winderbaum.
“Eyes of Wakanda, more than any other show we’re doing in animation, ties directly into the MCU,” Winderbaum told theOfficial Marvel Podcast. “This is a story about Wakandan history. It’s produced by Ryan Coogler, it’s directed by Todd Harris who is one of our longtime storyboard artists, who I first met when he designed the Hulk vs. Thor fight inThor: Ragnarok. It’s an awesome show. The action’s insane, the storytelling is fantastic. It’s about the history of Wakanda, but it also expands into the greater MCU at different time periods. So if you’re a fan of the movies, this is gonna be a real treat.”
The voice cast for the series has yet to be confirmed. It was previously reported that Danai Gurira would return as Dora Milaje general Okoye for a spin-off series, but it’s unconfirmed whether this is a separate project to Eyes of Wakanda.
