Description
A digital film still of Danai Gurira and Ryan Coogler on the set of the film Black Panther.
The two are depicted from the waist up, standing next to each other on an interior set. Gurira is on the left side of the image. Dressed as the character Okoye, she wears a red and gold Dora Milaje costume with brown leather banding across the chest and waist. An intricately beaded orange, brown, orange and gold tabard is at her waist, with a large gold belt buckle of a panther face. She wears gold armor plates on her shoulders and a necklace and arm bands of stacked gold rings in the style of the Ndebele tribe's idzila. A kimoyo bead bracelet is on her proper left wrist. She is standing next to director Ryan Coogler, who is wearing a black t-shirt. Coogler stands with his arms bent in front of him, left palm facing up and the first two fingers of his right hand extended adn pointing towards the left palm. Both Gurira and Coogler are looking down at Coogler's hands and Gurira is mimicking the pose of his hands with her own. Film equipment can be seen on the right side of the image. The background is out of focus. There is a blue wall and several crew members can be seen.
