Only a few more days. Only a few more days and will we have the epicness that is BLACK PANTHER available on movie screens everywhere. Oh my god, my hands are shaking just thinking about it! We’ve seen the trailers, checked out the posters, read the reviews and have even listened to the album from Kendrick Lamar, and so now all we have to do is wait another 72 hours. Of course, we aren’t going to make you wait in total silence. We have for you here a brand-new clip from the movie that debuted on Good Morning America, showing Erik Killmonger (Michael B. Jordan) and T’Challa (Chadwick Boseman) have some intense discussions. Intense doesn't even serve it justice. This is…intense x10!
Here is the plot synopsis for BLACK PANTHER:
Marvel Studios’ “Black Panther” follows T’Challa who, after the death of his father, the King of Wakanda, returns home to the isolated, technologically advanced African nation to succeed to the throne and take his rightful place as king. But when a powerful old enemy reappears, T’Challa’s mettle as king—and Black Panther—is tested when he is drawn into a formidable conflict that puts the fate of Wakanda and the entire world at risk. Faced with treachery and danger, the young king must rally his allies and release the full power of Black Panther to defeat his foes and secure the safety of his people and their way of life.
This movie has much more anticipation behind than we previously thought it would. Before we were debating if it could crack $100 million during its opening weekend, but now we'll be shocked if it comes in below $140 million. The movie is outselling even some of the bigger Marvel movies at this same point, and what's helping that are the stellar reviews. The movie currently stands as the best-reviewed Marvel movie yet, and a lot of that praise is going to Jordan as the villain Killmonger and his chemistry with the titular hero played by Boseman.
BLACK PANTHER hits theaters this Friday!
