Marvel‘s ‘Black Panther’ movie may be set for a 2018 release, but excitement is still at fever pitch.
Said buzz cranked up a notch last night at Comic-Con 2016 in San Diego.
Why?
It’s the first time the cast for the hotly anticipated flick assembled.
Posing with director Ryan Coogler were Chadwick Boseman, Lupita Nyong’o, Michael B. Jordan, and latest addition Danai Gurira.

Beyond Boseman’s lead role as the Black Panther, it’s now been confirmed that Jordan will play villain Erik Killmonger. Nyong’o will take on the role of Nakia and Gurira will star as Okoye – both bodyguards of the protagonist.
Filming starts in January 2017. The movie itself will land in theaters on July 6th 2018.
