Marvel shut down the Boulevard last night for a jaw-dropping premiere for
Black Panther. The film's principal cast was in attendance, along with several other Hollywood heavyweights. Premiere invites for the screening had the dress code as
"Royal Attire" and as you can see in the images that follow, attendees took that request to heart.

Marvel Studios’ “Black Panther” follows T’Challa who, after the death of his father, the King of Wakanda, returns home to the isolated, technologically advanced African nation to succeed to the throne and take his rightful place as king. But when a powerful old enemy reappears, T’Challa’s mettle as king—and Black Panther—is tested when he is drawn into a formidable conflict that puts the fate of Wakanda and the entire world at risk. Faced with treachery and danger, the young king must rally his allies and release the full power of Black Panther to defeat his foes and secure the safety of his people and their way of life.
Shuri actress Letitia Wright reportedly has a number of scene-stealing moments in the film.
