Black Panther will be kicking off the 2018 year in Marvel Studios movies; it will be followed by the massive crossover event of Avengers: Infinity War in May, and Ant-Man and the Wasp in July. Judging by the recent Avengers: Infinity War trailer, the events of Black Panther will have major impact on the larger MCU. There’s increasing likelihood that the final Infinity Stone (the Soul Stone) is actually the heart of Black Panther’s homeland, Wakanda’s, prosperity. The African nation will the setting for the big “Battle of Wakanda” in Infinity War, with many of the Black Panther characters pictured above making their second Marvel Cinematic Universe appearance.
Before all that, however, the Black Panther movie will challenge Chadwick Boseman’s T’Challa to return to Wakanda to make his rightful claim to the throne. T’Challa’s political agenda will be undermined by Wakandan dissident Erik Killmonger (Michael B. Jordan) and his smuggler partner, Ulysses Klaue (Andy Serkis).
Black Panther stars Chadwick Boseman (Get on Up), Michael B. Jordan (Creed), Lupita Nyong’o (Star Wars: The Force Awakens), Danai Gurira (The Walking Dead), Martin Freeman (Sherlock), Daniel Kaluuya (Get Out), with Angela Bassett (American Horror Story), with Forest Whitaker (Rogue One: A Star Wars Story), and Andy Serkis (Avengers: Age of Ultron).
