Black Panther is cleaning up at the Oscars, having won awards for costume design and production design early in the night. While many Marvel Studios awards have earned Academy Awards nominations in the past, Black Panther is the first Marvel Cinematic Universe movie that has actually taken home any of Hollywood’s biggest prizes. It didn’t take long for Marvel Entertainment to acknowledge the big moment on their official Twitter account:

Bringing the world of Wakanda to life is no small undertaking. Thereโs so much thoughtful world building in every scene, and this is incredibly well deserved. #BlackPanther #Oscars pic.twitter.com/x7Jy4y72uV
