Black Panther is available to stream via Disney+ along with all the other Marvel Cinematic Universe movies. Included in your usual Disney+ subscription, all you need to do is hit play.

Black Panther tells the story of T’Challa, aka Black Panther, who becomes the king of the African nation of Wakanda after his father’s death. Faced with the role of leading Wakanda, he’s challenged by his cousin, Killmonger, who plans to abandon the country’s isolationist policies and start a global revolution. There’s a lot more political intrigue here than some other Marvel Cinematic Universe movies but it’s a fascinating tale of different sides. Featuring an all-star cast including the late Chadwick Boseman, Michael B. Jordan, Daniel Kaluuya, Angel Bassett, and many more, it’s easily one of the best Marvel movies out there.
