On February 16th, the King arrives.
With the worldwide premiere in the rearview mirror, Marvel has really started ramping up the marketing campaign and earlier today, the studio released a ton of new hi-res stills along with a new TV spot, set to the recently released single, "Pray For Me," from Black Panther: The Album.
There's nothing too spoiler-y about the photos or TV spot, so feel free to check them out, but it's understandable if you choose to skip them for now.
Check out the new "Pray" TV spot below:

T'Challa (Chadwick Boseman), the King of Wakanda, sitting on his throne.
Ramonda (Angela Bassett), T'Challa's mother and most-trusted advisor. This is the first of two blockbuster releases for Bassett this year as she's also slated to appear alongside Tom Cruise and Henry Cavill in Mission: Impossible - Fallout this July.
T'Challa (Chadwick Boseman) and his former love Nakia (Lupita Nyong'o), who is an operative of the Dora Milaje and has been described as a "war dog... an undercover spy for Wakanda. Her job is to go out into the world and report back on what's going on."
Nakia (Lupita Nyong'o) and Okoye (Danai Gurira) head off on a secret mission... or are they returning from one?
Erik Killmonger (Michael B. Jordan) has been described as one of the best villains in the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe, so expect big things from him come February 16th. We also see that W'Kabi (Daniel Kaluuya) has seemingly aligned himself with Killmonger as has M'Baku (Winston Duke).
W'Kabi (Daniel Kaluuya) offers his counsel to T'Challa (Chadwick Boseman). We've been led to believe W'Kabi is T'Challa's best friend, but will the movie see him betray the King?
Another shot of Get Out breakout Daniel Kaluuya as T'Challa's best friend W'Kabi.
Winston Duke as M'Baku, the ruthless leader of the Jabari, who oppose T'Challa as the King. Also, according to multiple reports, he will not be referred to as "Man-Ape" at any point in the movie, but it sounds like they will share some similar personality traits.
Daniel Kaluuya as W'Kabi once again. He serves as the head of security for the Border Tribe, but when T'Challa goes rogue, this may cause a little friction between friends.
Another cool shot of Winston Duke as M'Baku, sitting on his own throne of sorts. His motivations remain unclear, but it seems likely that he's also after the throne.
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.
