Shout! Factory has announced a Jan. 18 release for Marvel Knights Animation: Black Panther on DVD.
The animated series' six episodes, based on the comic book by Reginald Hudlin and John Romita Jr., were originally intended -- but never aired -- for BET.
Black Panther features a voice cast including Djimon Hounsou as Black Panther; music artist and actress Jill Scott as Storm; Kerry Washington as Princess Shuri; Alfre Woodard as both Dondi Reese and Queen Mother; Carl Lumbly as Uncle S'Yan; and Stan Lee as General Wallace.
The Marvel Knights Animation: Black Panther DVD includes extensive bonus content and a graphic rich cover, plus a unique replica of comic book-style plastic sleeve packaging that bridges the comic book to DVD concept.
Here's how the series is described:
"Deep in the heart of Africa lies Wakanda, an advanced and unconquerable civilization. A family of warrior-kings possessing superior speed, strength and agility has governed this mysterious nation as long as time itself. The latest in this famed line is young King T'Challa, the great hero known worldwide as the Black Panther.
"Now, outsiders once again threaten to invade and plunder Wakanda. Leading this brutal assault is Klaw, a deadly assassin with the blood of T'Challa's murdered father on his hands, who brings with him a strong army of super-powered mercenaries. Even with Wakanda's might and his own superhuman skills, can the Black Panther prevail against this deadly invading force?"
Marvel Knights Animation: Black Panther DVD is priced to own at $14.97.
