The wait is almost over. Marvel released the final trailer for Black Panther . The trailer debuted after halftime of the college football National Championship game.
It’s only fitting that the trailer was shown after the Kendrick Lamar performed the game’s halftime show. A new track by Lamar is playing in background as Wakanda welcomes home their King. Marvel announced that Lamar teamed up with Anthony Tiffith and Top Dawg Entertainment to create and produce the soundtrack for the movie.

In the latest trailer, T’Challa (Chadwick Boseman) returns to Wakanda after the events of Captain America: Civil War and the death of his father. T’Challa comes home to claim the throne of Wakanda, but it won’t be easy. Erik Killmonger (Michael B. Jordan) challenges T’Challa for the throne. He may not be working alone though. Ulysses Klaue/Klaw (Andy Serkis) appears to be another foe that T’Challa and his loyal warriors must deal with. The trailer has some pretty amazing action, including fight scenes that make Danai Gurira look like a goddess.
I have to admit, the music builds the excitement. It’s amazing what a good soundtrack can do for a movie. I’m most excited to see Gurira, Lupita Nyong’o and T’Challa’s female army in action. It’s powerful and will only add to the evergrowing spotlight on the strength of women.
Here is the official synopsis from Marvel.com:
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.
