The film will join 16 other Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) movies currently streaming in the IMAX Enhanced format. The IMAX version allows viewers to see more of the scenes in the movie with an expanded aspect ratio. This provides viewers with an immersive viewing experience from their home on their TV or any other supported devices.

From original live-action TV shows like WandaVision to newer shows including She-Hulk: Attorney at Law and Ms. Marvel plus dropping feature films like Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings and Spiderman: Now Way Home on the streaming service early.

The same holds true with Black Panther: Wakanda Forever which is streaming on the service one month before the premiere of season three of The Mandalorian.

To get viewers hyped about the film’s streaming debut, Proxy Media, in collaboration with Marvel Studios and Marvel Entertainment, will release the Official Black Panther Podcast.

The podcast will cover the journey taken to make the film. Listeners can listen and learn about the emotional journey taken to make the film. The podcast will run over the course of six episodes.
