Ryan Coogler Wants to Make an All-Female 'Black Panther' Spin-off
We NEED this to happen.
Imagine: the indomitable women of Wakanda starring in their very own motion picture.
It's something we'd most certainly pay to see, and if Black Panther director, Ryan Coogler has his way, we might see it come life. During an interview earlier this week at Canne with film critic Elvis Mitchell, the director was asked if the women in the movie were as important as the male characters. Of course, the answer was yes.

When asked if he'd consider making a spin-off with the women of the film, the answer was also a affirmative. "Oh man," he said "That would be amazing if the opportunity came up. They did it in the comic-book version."
We most definitely agree, and it looks like Shuri (Letitia Wright) is already on board.
We can only imagine how fierce and downright amazing an entire film centered on the Dora Milaje would be. Fingers crossed that it happens in the future, but for now we'll continue to obsess over Black Panther, which is set for a home release this month.
