Denzel Washington has confirmed that he will star in 'Black Panther 3', with director Ryan Coogler currently writing a role specifically for him. This announcement was made during an appearance on The Today Show. Washington also revealed that 'Black Panther 3' will be one of his final movies before he retires from acting. He mentioned that he has only a few projects left, including collaborations with Steve McQueen, a film adaptation of 'Othello', and a role in a film about the military leader Hannibal. The inclusion of Washington in the 'Black Panther' franchise is particularly significant as the late Chadwick Boseman once stated, 'There is no Black Panther without Denzel Washington.'
