On Sunday, Black Panther snagged a pair of SAG Awards, one for: Outstanding Performance by a Stunt Ensemble in a Motion Picture, and one for: Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture. That set up nicely for Monday when Disney revealed that the Best Picture nominee would be heading back to a select 250 […]

In a perfect world, Mandy and Sorry to Bother You would dominate the 2019 Oscar nominations. However, in case you somehow missed this little fact, we do not live in such a world. Still, there’s plenty to celebrate about this year’s batch of Academy Award contenders. As expected, A Star Is Born and Roma landed in multiple […]

At this point, it’s difficult to even picture someone other than Ryan Coogler directing Black Panther or its sequel, whenever that may come. It’s a reflection on how great of a decision Marvel Studios made by choosing Coogler to helm the groundbreaking project. Following the critical acclaim of Fruitvale Station and the commercial success of Creed, Coogler didn’t come across […]

After dominating the big screen in 2018, Michael B. Jordan has made a big move in the fashion realm. This week, Coach will launch its Spring 2019 men’s campaign starring the Black Panther actor. Jordan was announced as Coach’s first-ever men’s ambassador back in September. “I’ve really enjoyed getting to know Michael over the last few years,” Coach Creative […]

It was quite a year for Letitia Wright. Though she’s worked in the industry since 2011, the Guyanese-born actress remained relatively unknown among American audiences—that is, until February 2018. Wright was deemed the breakout star of Marvel’s Black Panther, where she portrayed the unapologetically confident Shuri. Since then, the 25-year-old has appeared in some of the year’s most commercially […]

Kendrick Lamar and SZA secured a legal win earlier this week. According to legal documents obtained by Pitchfork, the TDE artists have settled their copyright infringement lawsuit over the Black Panther soundtrack cut “All the Stars.” British-Liberian artist Lina Iris Viktor filed the suit back in February, claiming the song’s music video appropriated elements from her “Constellations” […]

Even before Christmas Day sales are recorded, the U.S. box office has reportedly brought in a staggering $11.383 billion in 2018.  Despite streaming subscription services threatening box office revenue, blockbuster hits like Black Panther, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, and Deadpool 2 drove this year’s numbers past the previous benchmark. The last record high was set in 2016 at $11.382 billion.  While the […]

Andy Serkis revealed that his ribs came dangerously close to being broken by Chadwick Boseman in the “very, very first take” of filming their fight scene in Black Panther. Serkis, who plays Ulysses Klaue, told PeopleTV’s “Couch Surfing” that the scene required Boseman’s character T’Challa to knee him in the chest, but things went south […]

Forever 21 couldn’t make it to the new year without one more scandal. The fast-fashion retailer found itself in more hot water this week after unveiling a holiday sweater inspired by Marvel’s game-changing movie Black Panther. The piece in question wasn’t too noteworthy, as it featured a Fair Isle pattern with a Black Panther helmet motif and […]

Apple has released its year-end data on the most-streamed albums and songs on Apple Music as well the most-downloaded apps across iPhones and iPads. The music front is pretty much what you would expect. Drake dominated on a global and national level, notching several of the year’s top songs as well as its top album. Cardi B had global […]
