“Nothing specific to reveal, other than to say we absolutely will do that,” Feige said. “One of the favorite pastimes at Marvel Studios is sitting around on a Part One and talking and dreaming about what we would do in a Part Two. There have been plenty of those conversations as we were putting together the first Black Panther. We have ideas and a pretty solid direction on where we want to head with the second one.”

For now, Feige and Marvel Studios is gearing up for the release of “Avengers: Infinity War,” the latest MCU film.

“Infinity War” will be in theaters April 27.
