Black Panther's release will be a watershed moment for the superhero genre, with the Marvel Cinematic Universe finally giving a black superhero his own solo movie, and if early box office projections are to be believed, the film could end up being a Civil War-sized success.

Chadwick Boseman leads a stacked cast also including Forest Whitaker, Angela Bassett, Michael B. Jordan, Lupita Nyong'o, Martin Freeman and Andy Serkis, while Creed's Ryan Coogler directs one of the MCU's most unique and visually diverse properties to date.

Plenty is riding on this one, but considering what's been shown off so far and the talent involved, there's not much reason to doubt another Marvel smash hit.
