First Look At Marvel’s Black Panther

It’s official – we’ve finally got our first glimpse at
Marvel’s Black Panther on the set of ‘Captain America:
Civil War’. And he looks pretty awesome.
Snapped on set in Berlin by photographer Andreas
Meyer , it appears to be a stuntman inside the Black
Panther costume. But while Chadwick Boseman was
nowhere to be seen, this is our first glimpse at the
awesome new suit.

As you can see, this rather impressive Black Panther
suit very closely resembles the official concept art
which was unveiled alongside the film’s official
announcement. Sporting a full, jet-black suit and
signature panther-style headpiece, it’s a rather imposing
costume.
And from the set photos, it looks as though he’s getting
stuck right into the action, as he chases down Bucky
Barnes – aka the Winter Soldier – across the rooftops of
the German capital.
How does this play into the larger ‘Civil War’ storyline?
For now, that remains unclear… but with both Captain
America and the Falcon appearing on set, it looks as
though Black Panther has been caught up in the super-
powered conflict.
An even closer look at the costume is revealed during
the stunt performer’s downtime… and with a clearly
tribal-influenced design around the arms and collar,
comic book fans are going to be rather pleased with his
big-screen look.
Will Black Panther sport a similarly awesome costume in
his own solo film? For now, we’ll have to wait and see…
but hopefully they don’t mess with this awesome design
too much.
‘Captain America: Civil War’ heads to cinemas on 6 May
2016.
