With the highly anticipated theatrical debut of Marvel’s Black Panther: Wakanda Forever just a couple of weeks away, Marvel has shared a cryptic message regarding the film on Twitter.
UPDATE 10/26/2022:
- As we speculated, this cryptic tease was indeed for the film’s lead single, “Lift Me Up,” performed by Rihanna.
- You can pre-save “Lift Me Up” on both Spotify and Apple Music.
What’s Happening:
- The tweet simply features the eyes emoji, the Wakanda Forever hashtag and a 15-second video.
- The video sees the logo for the film fade away as the first ‘R’ in ‘FOREVER’ remains and moves to the center of the screen as the date “10.28.22″ appears beneath it.
- With no additional information provided for the tweet, fans of course immediately began sharing their theories.
- The top theory seems to be that this Friday (October 28), we will get the debut of a single from pop superstar Rihanna that will headline the soundtrack of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
- However, at this time, we don’t know for sure what this tweet from Marvel means.
