Now that is a poster right there.

EW has a write up of the scenes shown:

In new footage from the movie — which received a standing ovation — we saw nearly the full casino scene from the film. T’Challa, Okoye (The Walking Dead‘s Danai Gurira), and Nakia (Lupita Nyong’o) are dressed to the nines, entering a glamorous secret club in South Korea, in pursuit of the Vibranium poacher Ulysses Klaue (Andy Serkis), who was last scene in the Marvel universe getting his arm cut off in Avengers: Age of Ultron. Now he wears a plastic prosthetic, and he’s there to meet the CIA agent Everett K. Ross (Martin Freeman). There will be an exchange — a tiny scrap of Vibranium, in exchange for a suitcase full of diamonds.

The Wakanda operatives are still low-key, tracking their prey. Meanwhile, Klaue prepares for the handoff with his American contact, who seems unhappy to be bargaining with the unsavory arms dealer. Nyong’o’s Nakia — a “war dog” undercover operative, who is like James Bond and a Bond girl wrapped up in one, is ready to fight. Okoye tells her to stand down. They don’t want a shoot-out, she says.

But Nakia doesn’t listen. She draws down. Klaus gets spooked, and Okoye ends up pulling out a tiny piece of Vibranium herself — a purse-sized implement that extends to a full-sized spear. Three of Klaue’s men are on the ground before long, victims of a brutal beatdown. Klaus opens fire on the CIA agent, and diamonds burst from the silver case. Everyone’s operation has just gone south.

As Klaus retreats from the brawl, T’Challa leaps from the ground floor to the balcony in a single powerful jump. He’s not wearing his his suit, and Klaus has his gun out, point blank range. He shoots, but he’s out of ammunition. So he raises his hands — his real one, and the fake.

“You look just like your father,” he tells the young Wakandan king. Then the prosthetic opens up. A cannon with a blue, glowing core extends, and Black Panther dodges a lethal blast at the last moment. From there, we see a street chase. Klaue speeds away with his surviving entourage in a caravan of SUVs while T’Challa chases on foot.

As T’Challa runs, his evening wear disintegrates and his Vibranium-woven Black Panther suit spreads across his body. He leaps upon Klaus’s car, ripping one of the front wheels off with his claws. Okoye hurls her spear through the air with such force, it embeds in the street in front of another SUV and causes the vehicle to flip end over end when it strikes the post.

From there, the scene became a more traditional trailer, revealing a battle at Warrior Falls between T’Challa and mountain tribe ruler M’Baku (Winston Duke). Jordan’s Erik Killmonger confronts T’Challa in his throne room. “Must feel good. Sitting here comfortable,” he tells T’Challa. The meeting goes badly. In a shot that was previously released, Killmonger pulls out his own blades on a landing pad to confront members of the all-female Dora Milaje. But this time, we see his clothing dissolve just as T’Challa’s did. Killmonger has his own version of the Black Panther suit — this one golden.

The two men become locked in battle, and this time there’s no telling who will be left standing.

So after that description we can finally call him Klaw.

I can't wait for this I'm so hyped

 

[Wylie Times]

Sounds like people are assuming that golden outfit is a black Panther costume. I could easily see it turning out to be a Golden Lion outfit.

 

[CB Fan]

That Poster is awesome! Way better than the first one released.

Apparently Erik wears it.

Oh I know, that's why I'm saying it's probably the Golden Lion instead of his own Black Panther costume.

Collider still last minute on Black Panther breakdowns.

To be fair they mentioned The Black Panther trailer in the breakdown for Infinity War.

This footage just sounds awesome. Really like the idea of the Wakandans being so advanced they can get clothes/suits to appear at any moment.

Really cool

Lupita is having fun hanging out with her fellow Marvel actors. She seems to be having the best time just by judging how excited she sounds in all the interviews after the panel.

It's something they've taken straight from the comics. It first appeared during the Priest run, then Hudlin's, Hickman's, and most recently Coates run.

It's typically not something standard for all Wakandans but mostly for those within the Wakandan government or military forces.

I haven't read a lot of BP comics so nice to hear that it's something they were able to incorporate into the film.

I was rooting for her when she was getting these awards for 12 Years a Slave, hoping she wasn't going to fade out post Oscar. Glad to see this happen for her. She got the Oscar bait movie out the way, and it's time for her to make fun movies.

 

[guitarsingerguy]

Not gonna lie...I don't know squat about BP. What is this Golden Lion suit because the article I read mistook it as an upgraded BP costume.

Nice pic, she's gorgeous!

In the comics Wakanda is made up of many tribes, all of whom worship different gods. The Panther cult obviously worships the Panther god Bast, The Mountain Tribe worships White Gorilla, and there's another cult that worships the Lion God Sekhmet.

T'Challa even mentions Bast and Sekhmet during Civil War. I think, the people in the crowd just saw the suit and immediately thought it was a Gold Panther outfit. Sort of like how that one report claimed they saw two Dora Milaje flirting but Marvel came out and said there was no romantic interest between the two characters.

This movie is drawing HEAVILY from the comics. They've added some of their own stuff (all of which is good), but this is looking to be one of the more faithful adaptations.

Most of the stuff seems to be drawn from the Christopher Priest run as characters like Okoye, Nakia, Zuri, and Ross all debuted and were big parts of that run.

Then you have Shuri that was created by Reginald Hudlin, the Dora Milaje costumes look like the ones from that run too.

There's a few things from Coates run, mainly the Kimoyo beads (though Kimoyo tech first appeared in Priest's run.), those flying ships in the latest poster look similar to the ones in Coates run too.
