BLACK PANTHER

Stylish and majestic, this film places us inside the secluded world of Wakanda, found somewhere in East Central Africa. This is a land rich in vibranium, a metal capable of absorbing sound and energy and repurposing its power. T'Challa (Chadwick Boseman) is the new king of Wakanda, but his sovereignty is challenged by Erik Killmonger (Michael B. Jordan), an American who has a hidden family connection. Soon T'Challa will need all the help he can get from Okoye ( Danai Gurira), Nakia (Lupita Nyong'o), and sister Shuri (Letitia Wright), along with CIA agent, Everett Ross (Martin Freeman). But Killmonger has spent his whole life preparing for this moment, and now he's ready to take on the world.
