In just a few weeks we’ll see what a Taika Waititi-directed Marvel movie looks like, then a few months later, Ryan Coogler (Fruitvale Station, Creed) will deliver his version with Black Panther. While the character has popped up in the Marvel universe before, this will be his first solo outing and now a new full-length trailer has landed.

“It’s something people are excited about because people haven’t quite seen it before, and I would concur,” Chadwick Boseman tells Metro. “I’ve never played anything quite like it, and it is going to be an exciting time.” With a cast that also includes Michael B. Jordan, Lupita Nyong’o, Danai Gurira, Daniel Kaluuya, Angela Bassett, Forest Whitaker, Martin Freeman, and Andy Serkis, check out the trailer below.

After the events of Captain America: Civil War, King T’Challa returns home to the reclusive, technologically advanced African nation of Wakanda to serve as his country’s new leader. However, T’Challa soon finds that he is challenged for the throne from factions within his own country. When two foes conspire to destroy Wakanda, the hero known as Black Panther must team up with C.I.A. agent Everett K. Ross and members of the Dora Milaje, Wakanadan special forces, to prevent Wakanda from being dragged into a world war.
