Marvel Executive Nate Moore Stepping Away to Pivot to Producing as Studio Announces BLACK PANTHER 3

Longtime Marvel executive Nate Moore has announced that he will depart Marvel Studios in his current position and transition to producing [outside of Marvel] in early 2025.

Moore will stay on at Marvel Studios through mid-March and the release of Captain America: Brave New World, which he is currently producing. The film bows on February 14.

And although Moore is moving away from Marvel projects, he will continue to collaborate on some upcoming projects even after Captain America. Marvel Studios’ Kevin Feige and Louis D’Esposito said in a statement:

“Nate is a fantastic executive and colleague as well as a wonderful friend to all of us here at Marvel Studios. He has been a core member of our team since 2010, and his influence will continue to reverberate in our storytelling.

“Although we’ll miss him a great deal, we look forward to watching what he does next while also having the good fortune of working with him in a new way on our next Black Panther movie.”

It’s cool that they took his leaving as a chance to confirm the third Black Panther. Moore has worked on the previous two Black Panther movies, and it’s great that he is returning for the threequel in a new capacity. Moore said in his own statement:

“Nearly everything I know about producing I’ve learned from my time at Marvel Studios. I feel lucky to have worked with a group of people who love filmmaking and storytelling as much as my Marvel colleagues and the cast and crew of our films.

“But I couldn’t be more excited to apply my experience and passion for film towards theatrical movies in all genres, including returning to the world of Wakanda for Black Panther 3.”

Moore has been an executive in development and production at Marvel Studios since 2010. He is best known for shepherding and producing 2018’s Black Panther, which grossed more than $1.3 billion worldwide, picked up seven Oscar nominations, including best picture, and went on to win three Academy Awards. He also served as producer for Marvel Studios’ 2021 Eternals and 2022’s Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. He was executive producer for Marvel Studios’ The Falcon and The Winter Soldier on Disney+.

Prior to that, he worked on Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Captain America: Civil War. He also helped develop the script for Guardians of the Galaxy in the Marvel Writer’s Program.
