Black Pantherisn't the first black superhero movie ever made,Hairy | Adult Movies Online or even the first black Marvel superhero movie ever made. But it does feel like the start of a new chapter.

Even as superhero movies have become ever more ubiquitous over the past decade, they've remained stubbornly white, with characters of color largely relegated to supporting roles. The joke is that there are currently more superhero franchises built around white guys named Chris than there are ones about, well, literally anyone who isn't a white guy.

Black Pantherhas the potential to change that – maybe already has started to change that, in boardroom conversations we're not privy to.

Its incredible box office take has demolished the misguided "conventional wisdom" that black heroes don't sell, particularly overseas. Its glowing reviews give lie to the belief that black stories are somehow impossible for "mainstream" – that is, white – viewers to connect with.

(And yes, both of these are assumptions that have been disproven time and time again, but apparently they are lessons that Hollywood needs to learn time and time again. So here we are.)

Now that Black Panther's out, then, what's next? What do we have to look forward to from here, in terms of superhero movies about non-white leads?

Expect Marvel to return to Wakanda

Given how much money Black Pantherhas made, and given that nearly every Marvel Cinematic Universe solo superhero to date has gotten at least one sequel, it's only a matter of time before the studio announces Black Panther 2. Which will probably be followed, eventually, by Black Panther 3.

While we wait for that sequel, we can look forward to seeing Black Panther become a more central player in the MCU as a whole – starting with May's Avengers: Infinity War, which also brings back characters like Shuri and M'Baku. We can almost certainly expect him to return in 2019's Infinity Warsequel as well.

Still in question, though, is whether Marvel has plans for any othermovies centered around characters of color. If the studio decides to go in that direction, they'll have no shortage of options. They could spin off existing characters like Shuri or Falcon, or bring in popular characters from the comics like Miss America or Ms. Marvel.

But that's a pretty big iffrom a studio that took ten years and 18 films to deliver their first non-white lead. Here's hoping Black Pantherencourages them to make not just more Black Panthermovies, but more movies about all different kinds of characters.

DC will make a splash with Aquaman

Across town at Warner Bros., the DC Extended Universe is also preparing to launch its first non-white superhero movie this year: Aquamanstarring Jason Momoa.

The character himself isn't new – he had a cameo in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justiceand a supporting part in Justice League– but the new movie, out this December, will be his first time swimming solo. Behind the camera is James Wan, the franchise's first director of color.

Also in the works right now is Black Adam, starring Dwayne Johnson. However, with no direct or release date announced, it's not clear when the film will arrive.

Beyond that, Warner Bros.' future only gets murkier, not least because the disappointment of Justice Leagueseems to have thrown their plans into disarray.

But for what it's worth, we know there were plans at one point for a Cyborg movie starring Ray Fisher. It also seems likely that Green Lantern Corps, if it ever happens, will feature the character John Stewart, who is black.

The studio has also been working on a film about Nightwing, who is of Romani descent in the comics – though it remains to be seen if he'll be cast that way in the movie. And there have been occasional rumors of a Suicide Squadspinoff starring Will Smith's Deadshot.

Again, though, with so much of Warner Bros.' DC plans in flux, we'll just have to wait and see which of these actually pan out.

Fox's X-Men are still lagging behind

Outside of the MCU and the DCEU, the future gets even harder to read.

While the X-Men franchise, which is set up at 20th Century Fox, features several characters of color, its leads have been almost entirely white heroes like Xavier, Magneto, Wolverine, and Deadpool.

If there are plans to change this, the studio hasn't tipped its hand. Even the possible spinoffs we've heard about revolve around white characters: Gambit (to be played by Channing Tatum), Kitty Pryde, Mystique, Multiple Man.

That said, there are a couple of upcoming releases that seem to prominently feature characters of color, including this summer's Deadpool 2, featuring Zazie Beetz as Domino, and next year's New Mutants, featuring Sunspot and Mirage. And hey, maybe this fall's X-Men: Dark Phoenixwill give Alexandra Shipp's Storm more to do than X-Men: Apocalypsedid.

The other complicating factor to keep in mind here is the impending acquisition of 20th Century Fox by Disney (which owns Marvel Studios), which makes it very difficult to say what lies in store for the X-Men universe beyond New Mutants.

Sony seems headed in the right direction

Then there's Sony. The studio has churned out three versions of Spider-Men over the past two decades, all white. Next up is Venom, which stars Tom Hardy and is expected to launch a whole cinematic franchise of Spidey-adjacent characters. (They're not technically part of the MCU, like Tom Holland's Peter Parker is; it's complicated.)

But Sony's plans after Venomseem more promising on the diversity front. First there's Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, out this December. The animated feature centers on the Afro-Latino character Miles Morales, to be voiced by Shameik Moore.

The next live-action film to come out of Sony's non-MCU Marvel movies (i.e., the ones not starring Tom Holland) will likely be Silver & Black, about Silver Sable and Black Cat. Both characters are white in the comics, but we don't know yet how they'll be cast. We do know that it'll be written and directed by Gina Prince-Bythewood, the first black woman ever to direct a Marvel adaptation.

Can Hollywood rise to the challenge?

So, okay, the foreseeable future looks pretty white. Over the next few years, we can expect more Black Panther, an Aquamanmovie, an animated Spider-Manmovie, and a few diverse ensemble pictures, plus a tiny handful of projects that might happen but aren't guaranteed to.

That's more than we've had in the last few years, sure – but it's nothing like the onslaught of white superhero movies still to come.

Still, we can hope for better. Change will take time, and I don't mean that in a vague general sense. I mean that any POC superhero blockbuster greenlit as a result of Black Panther's success will take at least another couple of years to reach the big screen, because that's how long these movies take to make.

After Black Panther, studios can no longer fall back on the old excuses for excluding heroes of color. And there are plenty of ways to make these worlds more inclusive – by pushing non-white characters to the forefront, for example (how about a Storm spinoff?) or by casting non-white actors to play traditionally white roles (as Warner Bros. did with Jason Momoa's Aquaman).

Black Pantherdidn't just demonstrate that superheroes of color couldsell. The excitement surrounding it proved that there is a real hunger for more racial diversity onscreen, and one that isn't likely to be sated by a single Black Panthermovie every two to three years.

Now it's on Hollywood to meet that challenge.
