Michael B Jordan and Ryan Coogler‘s new vampire film has confirmed its release date, with the mystery project set to hit screens next year.
The duo, who have collaborated before with Fruitvale Station, Creed, Black Panther and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, will team up once more for the currently untitled project.
Though the film currently has no title or concrete plot details, Deadline has reported that the film will hit the big screen on March 7, 2025.

Details for the project are currently scarce, though Coogler is said to have written a script from an original idea, with the story said to contain a “period element”.
The pair’s most recent collaboration saw Jordan make a surprise cameo in Wakanda Forever, the star reprising his role as Killmonger – a fact the actor managed to keep secret from everybody – including his own family.
“It’s tough, I think this time around, because we lost our brother Chadwick [Boseman], it was so much weight to power through,” he told The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.

“Ryan had such a tremendous task in front of him to evolve the script and the story in a way that still honoured Chadwick but moved the franchise forward as well.
“So for me to be able to come back – and I really had to keep it under wraps, I had to grow my hair out. You know, I got the locks back in and stuff like that.
“And I’m traveling to a lot of places, so I’ve got to wear a hat, a hoodie, fly private, which isn’t too bad of a thing. But being able to keep it under wraps was really a tough thing.”
The currently untitled vampire film is scheduled for release on March 7, 2025. Black Panther and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever are streaming on Disney+.
