Excited for Black Panther? So are we. Which is why we're rolling out obsessive coverage with Black PantherWeek.
Black Panther has movie audiences all but salivating with anticipation to see a beloved superhero and a formidable cast of color. The film's roster has been growing for years, adding vets like Angela Bassett and Forest Whitaker as well as future powerhouses like Letitia Wright and Winston Duke.
There's a whole lot of people in this whole lotta movie, and we don't want anyone to waste that precious theater time wondering, "What else have I seen her in?" For that, here's a handy who's who of the Black Panthercast – all of whom, if they weren't already, are stars.

Credit: marvelBefore Black Panther– or rather, before debuting the character in Captain America: Civil War– Boseman became something of a go-to historical actor, portraying Jackie Robinson in 42and James Brown in Get On Up. His career started with television and theatre, including directing an off-Broadway play and on the series Lincoln Heights.In 2017, he played Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall in the movie Marshall, featuring fellow Wakandan Sterling K. Brown.
Michael B. Jordan
Credit: marvelOne of the film's major characters is one of its most experienced emerging stars: Jordan is a mainstay of Ryan Coogler's filmography, having starred in both of the director's previous outings, Creedand Fruitvale Station. This isn't his first Marvel movie after an ill-fated Fantastic Fourouting, or even his first superhero movie if you count the visceral Chroniclein 2012. He also starred in That Awkward Moment, an ensemble rom-com in which he and Zac Efron are bros who walk through SoHo discussing their love lives while sipping overpriced coffee!
Many still know Jordan as Wallace from The Wire, or as Vince Howard from Friday Night Lightsfor a game-changing fourth season through to the end of the show. He also appeared in show runner Jason Katims' next series, Parenthood, as Haddie's sexiest and most socially aware boyfriend.
Lupita Nyong'o
Credit: matt kennedy/marvelNyong'o got her big break in 2013 with 12 Years A Slave, which earned her an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. Before making a CGI debut as Maz Kanata in the new Star Wars trilogy, she had a brief stint on Broadway in 2015's Eclipsedand appeared in the action film Nonstop.
Letitia Wright
Credit: marvelWright has been acting on TV since 2011 (including a spot on Doctor Who), but her breakout role was arguably the 2015 film Urban Hymn. Recently, she had a satisfying role in the most recent season of Black Mirroras Nish in "Black Museum." What starts as a mild-mannered girl on a road trip turns into a fierce revenge trip with a cathartic climax. You can catch her in Ready Player Oneon March 29 or just go see Black Panther again.
Danai Gurira
Credit: marvelGurira has been on a handful of TV shows, from Law and Orderto Robot Chicken, but her biggest role before Black Pantherwas undoubtedly as Michonne on The Walking Dead (who is still alive! An achievement!).
Sterling K. Brown
Credit: e. rodriguez/Getty Images for DisneyIf you're not weeping over Brown's masterful acting every week on This Is Us, we don't know what to tell you. The actor earned an Emmy for playing Randall Pearson on the widely-adored network drama, as well as one for his performance as Christopher Darden in American Crime Story: The People v O.J. Simpson. He had a significant role on Person of Interestand spent six yearson Army Wives. His first major TV role was in the early 2000s on Third Watch, but his filmography reveals guest appearances on dozens of other shows.
Angela Bassett
Credit: matt kennedy/marvelShe plays a literal queen in Black Panther and not without reason. Bassett won an Academy Award in 1993 for playing Tina Turner in What's Love Got to Do with It, a year after starring in Malcolm Xand two years before Strange Daysand Panther(which is not a Black Pantherprequel). She's built quite a resume playing iconic black women; Rosa Parks (The Rosa Parks Story), Katherine Jackson (The Jacksons: An American Dream), Coretta Scott King (Betty & Coretta), and Biggie Smalls' mother Voletta Wallace (Notorious). 1998 brought the indelible How Stella Got Her Groove Back, followed by Akeelah and the BeeandMeet the Browns. Her entry into the superhero genre was actually 2011's Green Lantern, so we're surprised and grateful that she returned. Bassett is now a mainstay of Ryan Murphy's American Horror Storyseries and will also appear in Infinity War.
Forest Whitaker
Credit: marvelWhere to even begin with Whitaker? Arrival, the Rootsreboot, Southpaw, Lee Daniels' The Butler? Whitaker had recurring TV roles on Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior, The Shield, and E.R., and literally dozens of other roles in the 20 years before winning multiple accolades for The Last King of Scotland, including an Academy Award. Recently, he played Saw Gerrera in Rogue One, making him one of two MCU/Star Wars crossover commodities in Black Panther.
Daniel Kaluuya
Credit: MATT KENNEDY/MARVELIf you don't know Daniel Kaluuya, you can just Get Out. The British actor comes from a comedy and theatre background; he co-wrote and starred in Skinsand won Critics' Circle Theatre Award for Outstanding Newcomer for a production of Sucker Punch. Kaluuya appeared in Season 1 of Black Mirroras the protagonist of "15 Million Merits" opposite Downton Abbey's Jessica Brown Findlay, and appeared in films including Johnny English Reborn, Kick-Ass 2, and Sicario. He is currently nominated for an Academy Award for his performance in Get Out.
Winston Duke
Credit: marvelBlack Pantheris Duke's highly blessed big break after TV roles including Person of Interest and Modern Family. He'll be back in May for Infinity War, and frankly, we're counting down the days.
Martin Freeman
Credit: marvelFreeman has done well for himself since (and including) those carefree days on the U.K. Office. Since then he had Love Actually, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, four seasons of Sherlock, two Edgar Wright films (Hot Fuzzand Shaun of the Dead), one season of Fargo, and three Hobbitmovies before reuniting with Smeagol on-screen for Black Panther.
Andy Serkis
Credit: marvelWe know Serkis well enough by now to know that we rarely get to see his face as we do in Black Panther. The actor who helped define modern methods of motion capture has been in King Kong, The Adventures of Tintin, Planet of the Apes, and as Snoke in Star Wars, all with some degree of CGI. His character, Ulysses Klaue, first appeared in 2015's Age of Ultron.
Black Panther is in theaters Friday.
