Marvel has revealed the first poster and teaser trailer for Black Panther.
The poster features a powerful image of star Chadwick Boseman sitting upon the throne of Wakanda in his Black Panther costume sans mask. Black Panther picks up after the events of Captain America: Civil War, with T’Challa returning home to take the mantle of king and finding himself tested by a conflict that puts the fate of Wakanda and the world at risk (see “'Black Panther' Begins Production”).The film is directed by Creed helmer Ryan Coogler and also stars Coogler-regular Michael B. Jordan (Killmonger), Lupita Nyong'o (Nakia), Danai Gurira (Okoye), Andy Serkis (Ulysses Klaue), Angela Bassett (Ramonda), and Forest Whitaker (Zuri). Black Panther will be in theaters on February 16, 2018 (see “New Dates for 'Star Wars,' Marvel, Pixar Movies”).
