UPDATE: A previous version of this article listed January 20th as the Disney Plus release date. We acquired this information through Disney Plus Support, which gave us that original date.
However, that information is incorrect. We apologize for the incorrect date and have corrected it below.
Starting the year the best way possible! We recently contacted the Disney+ team and we got a First Report on the official release date for the new sequel from Marvel Studios, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
The Hollywood Handle can confirm that the movie hits Disney+ on Wednesday, February 1st.

As pointed out by glorydaybulls, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is one of a select few Disney+ titles that are IMAX Enhanced. It was announced at CES 2023 that Disney+ subscribers will get to enjoy IMAX DTS signature sound on IMAX Enhanced titles with DTS-compatible TVs and AV receivers later in the year, making Disney+ the first major streaming service to support DTS audio. NOTE: it is unclear whether Black Panther: Wakanda Forever will have IMAX DTS audio enabled on Feb 1st.
