Marvel Studios has released a new featurette for "Black Panther," which is delving into why the African country of Wakanda has remained cloaked in secrecy; hidden away from the public eye for many, many years.

"Wakanda's walls have been up since its exception," says Martin Freeman, who in the movie plays Black Panther's CIA liaison Everett K. Ross. "It's the best kept secret in the world. Because it has something that the world wants."

It seems Black Panther's home country is filled with highly sought-after material called Vibranium, which is a natural resource that has been mined and manufactured into highly advanced technology and powerful weapons. It's also the reason why the country has become something of a folk legend, like the lost empire of Atlantis. If the world knew about this technologically advanced African country that secretly contained beneficial resources, it will automatically become a target. And Black Panther can't and won't let that happen.

Also released today is the film's first ever film clip, which was first shown on the Ellen Show, during which actor Chadwick Boseman stopped by for a quick chat. You can watch both the featurette and the clip, which we have attached to the playlist video above.

"Black Panther" opens February 16th. But you can get tickets now.

synopsis:
"Black Panther" follows T'Challa who, after the events of "Captain America: Civil War," returns home to the isolated, technologically advanced African nation of Wakanda to take his place as King.
