[Post Oficial] Black Panther. DEP Chadwick Boseman

This is just a gathering of interesting quotes surrounding Black Panther, after Mrvel opened up their offices and invited reporters to the editing bay for Black Panther. Some of these will be multiple interpretations of the same scenes.

• The Walking Deads Danai Gurira, who plays Okoye, a leading member of the Dora Milaje (the all-female royal guard), said she sees the film as Wakandas origin story. She also called the film a powerful universal story that feels really on the pulse of where we are right now as a whole society.  [IGN]

• True to the source material, the film will focus heavily on the country of Wakanda, and its unique combination of technological advancement powered by the countrys natural reserves of the metal vibranium and low-tech tradition. [The Verge]

• I saw the first footage of Angela Bassett as Ramonda, the actress resplendent in a shimmering honey robe with an enormous headpiece that would send every Sunday church lady home to start over.  [Vulture]

• The costumes in Black Pantherespecially the ones worn by the Dora Milajeare truly dazzling, with a lot of bright colors and elaborate patterns. Angela Bassett, as TChallas mother and Queen of Wakanda, sports a jaw-dropping coiffure of snow-white dreadlocks. [Vanity Fair]

• In the rough cut of this Black Panther scene, we see Guriras Okoye and Kasumbas Ayo swaying rhythmically back in formation with the rest of their team. Okoye eyes Ayo flirtatiously for a long time as the camera pans in on them. Eventually, she says, appreciatively and appraisingly, You look good. Ayo responds in kind. Okoye grins and replies, I know.  [Vanity Fair]

• This quick moment between two warrior women on their way to TChallas coronation leans into a current very popular run of the Black Panther comic. A 2016 spin-off called World of Wakanda by Ta-Nehisi Coates, Roxane Gay, and Yona Harvey is all about the relationship between two members of the Dora Milaje. [Vanity Fair]

• The first dailies we watched showed a hooded Nakia (Lupita Nyong'o) using martial arts to sneak up on and take out some soldiers as another large group of troops are engaged in a firefight. We then saw the Dora Milaje sailing to Warriors Falls for the kings coronation. There was drums, music, singing and dancing on the boat. There was the following playful exchange between Guriras Okoye and Kasumbas Ayo: You look good. You look better. I know.  [IGN]

• Portraying Nakia, a member of Dora Milaje, the kings female bodyguards, Oscar winner Lupita Nyongo gets her hands dirty in a scene where she single-handedly takes down a group of armed assailants in the jungle. [Entertainment Weekly]

• We then saw TChalla (Boseman) making his entrance to the Warrior Falls, two different angles of the same sequence following T'Challa as he steps out from a ship and into the water. Hes shirtless with his chest and shoulders painted, and he carries a ceremonial weapon. Traditionally garbed Wakandans cheer for their new leader in the stands above him. We then saw Forest Whitakers character Zuri approach T'Challa in the water and declare, The prince will now have the power of the Black Panther!  [IGN]

• From the footage heres what we know about Black Panther: Chadwick Boseman may be playing the King of Wakanda, but theres no way his T'Challa is the only star of this movie the warrior women of Black Panther are going to be its vibrant force.  [Mashable]

• And make no mistake: The Dora Milaje do plenty of heavy lifting in the film. From concept art hanging on an office wall to VFX shots in the sizzle reel to Nyong'o taking out a half-dozen armed soldiers in a scene shot earlier Monday, we got eyeful after eyeful of the Dora Milaje on duty.  [Mashable]

• Not all of what we saw of the Dora Milaje combat we also got to see them presiding over a kaleidoscopic yet solemn ceremony to crown a new, untested king. That scene was a distinct diversion from the films palette: a bold, contrast-heavy black & white world punctuated with dabs of reds and golds. All the gravity afforded a royal saga is in the designs, including tech and architecture jagged but fleet flying machines and glittering, steely spires and it all fits the mood of majestic mystery.  [Mashable]

• We were also informed that the first Black Panther trailer will drop this summer [IGN]
