Marvel Studios has scrapped the Okoye spinoff series in which Danai Gurira was set to reprise her role as the Dora Milaje general.

Full story below…

According to Brad Winderbaum, Marvel’s Head of Streaming, television, and animation, confirmed that the series is no longer in development.

In an interview with Pay or Wait, Winderbaum stated that Okoye will be back in action in some way:

“I love Okoye. I think fans of Okoye are going to be excited to see her come back. But I don’t think it’s going to be on a television show. I can’t say where or when, but I think there’s a lot to look forward to.”

The Okoye spinoff first gained traction in 2021 after reports that Gurira inked a deal with Disney+ to reprise her role. She also seemingly hinted at it on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert back in 2022 by stating:

“I have been told… that I can gently allude to this possibility.” 

Even though Okoye is off the table for now, we’ll still be going back to Wakanda soon with ‘Eyes of Wakanda’ animated series.

The series delves into the history of Wakandan warriors tasked with retrieving dangerous vibranium artifacts from around the world. It premieres on Disney+ on August 6.

With that, what are…
