In today's least surprising news, Marvel is going to make a sequel to Black Panther.

Kevin Feige, president of Marvel Studios, revealed that there will be another Black Panther movie following the critical and commercial success of the first film, Entertainment Weekly reported Friday.

Upon being asked about a second Black Panther movie, Feige didn't give any specifics but did promise that there will be one someday.

"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."

Additionally, Feige seemed pretty positive about the idea of having spin-off movies for other central Black Panther characters like Shuri or the Dora Milaje, although he hedged that by saying they wouldn't want to burn out fans and those movies aren't really on the team's radar at the moment.

"I think there’s lots of potential," he said. "It’s a balance between leaving people wanting more and then giving them too much, but I would watch a movie about any of those characters you just named. I think Shuri’s astounding, and you’ll see much more of her in our universe. Okoye, I think I’d watch three action films just Okoye. I’m not saying we’re doing that, but I’m saying that we’re intrigued by them. Frankly, as I’ve said before, finishing these first 22 movies is really all we’re thinking about at this point."

Hey Marvel, if you need any ideas for these spin-offs, we've got a few pitches for you.
