On Friday night during the NBA Finals, Ryan Coogler and Marvel Films dropped the first teaser trailer for their upcoming film Black Panther—and as expected, it was beyond LIT!
According to Esquire, during the 1-minute, 52-second clip (that boasted the talents of Chadwick Boseman, Michael B. Jordan, Lupita Nyong’o, Angela Bassett, Danai Gurira and Daniel Kaluuya) we learned that the movie takes place in secret land of Wakanda, the most technologically advanced society in the world. Over the years, the land has successfully hidden itself somewhere on the continent of Africa to prevent colonization and the theft of its powerful natural resource, Vibranium.
Naturally, Black Twitter lost their utter minds!
Some expressed their emotions of being completely shook to having a new sense of Black Pride to predicting how much money they plan on spending on this film:
