during the credits
  • We see Shuri at the beach in a continuation of the final scene in the film. She is approached by Nakia and a young boy. Nakia introduces him as her son, Toussaint. Nakia explains that T’Challa moved them to Haiti to distance them from the pressure of the Wakandan throne. After he came back (Avengers: Endgame), he found out about his illness so he had them stay there so they won’t witness his suffering. Shuri asks her if Queen Ramonda met the child and she says that she did. The boy asks if she can keep a secret and tells her that “Toussaint” is only his Haitian name and that he has a Wakandan one as well, it is “Prince T’Challa, son of King T’Challa,”.
  • We see the words: “Black Panther will return.”

Determined to return to his life, Joe teams up with a precocious soul, 22 (Tina Fey), who has never understood the appeal of the human experience.

during the credits
King T’Challa attends a UN meeting in Vienna, accompanied by Wakandans including Nakia (Lupita Nyong’o) and Okoye (Danai Gurira). At this meeting he publicly announces that his nation of Wakanda will offer aid to anyone in need, and a UN member then asks him how a “nation of farmers” could help the rest of the world. T’Challa’s smile at this question (possibly implying that he will finally reveal to the rest of the world that Wakanda isn’t actually a third-world country, but that it has vastly superior technology to any other country because of its supply of the super-metal ‘Vibranium’.)
