The film, due for release on Feb. 16, 2018, follows Boseman’s T’Challa as he assumes the throne after his father’s death and protects the nation from enemies as Black Panther.
One photo shows Black Panther in all his glory facing off with dissident Erik Killmonger, played by Jordan. Another depicts the hero’s all-woman team of bodyguards, the Dora Milaje, and yet another features Lupita Nyong’o as Nakia, a private operative, according to EW.
