A digital film still of Chadwick Boseman, Danai Gurira, and Ryan Coogler on the set of the film Black Panther.
The three are standing behind and leaning on a brown and gold interior balcony railing, with Gurira in the center, Boseman on the left and Coogler on the right. Boseman and Coogler are looking towards Gurira, who looks straight ahead. All three are smiling animatedly. Boseman, dressed as the character T'Challa, is wearing a dark grey jacket. Gurira, as the character Okoye, wears a hot pink halter dress, with a necklace and arm bands made of stacked gold rings. A kimoyo bead bracelet is on her proper left arm. Coogler wears jeans and a black t-shirt. To the left of the balcony railing is a wall with decorative floral carvings.
