…If you’re still here, then it’s safe to assume that you watched the clip, and are still in awe of just what kind of action Marvel Studios and director Ryan Coogler have put into Black Panther.
We’ve have, of course, seen portions of this sequence teased in just about every piece of Black Panther‘s marketing thus far. However, seeing a larger portion of it, with finished effects, is a much more thrilling experience.
Based on first reactions to Black Panther, one clear standout of the film is Okoye (Walking Dead‘s Danai Gurira), leader of the Dora Milaje, Wakanda’s female elite guard. Okoye is already poised to become a future Marvel Cinematic Universe star, seen in that already-iconic slow-motion shot of Captain America’s Avengers squad in Avengers: Infinity War‘s “Battle of Wakanda” sequence.
Black Panther is already breaking records for ticket pre-sales, and is projected for a massive opening weekend. The film will also add some important new elements to the MCU, making it an unquestionable must-see for any fan; but if you need more convincing, just watch the clip above again!
Black Panther opens in theaters on February 16th. Other upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe movies include; Avengers: Infinity War on May 4th, Ant-Man and the Wasp on July 6th, Captain Marvel on March 8, 2019, the fourth Avengers movie on May 3, 2019, the sequel to Spider-Man: Homecoming on July 5, 2019, and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 in 2020.
