Oh! Oh! You missed this month\u2019s big screen announcement? \u201cBlack Panther\u201d is coming back to a theatre near you. Yep. Character T\u2019Challa \u2014 played by lead actor Chadwick Boseman \u2014 returns for a sequel either late 2019 or early 2020, according to a post by The Hollywood Reporter.<\/p>\n

The landmark Marvel movie directed by Ryan Coogler grossed $700 million domestically and more than $1.3 billion across the globe. And boy did Black America, the Caribbean and Africans show up representing in their most modish Motherland garbs. I actually met Boseman while we both were vacationing in St. Lucia earlier summer 2018. Even off empress wigs camera, he embodies African-American pride and is just as humble as his superhero character.<\/p>\n

We at Black Beauty & Hair are so thrilled about the next installment that I had to compile the best African styles worthy of outfitting you beauties and beaus in for Black Panther\u2019s homecoming:<\/p>\n
