BLACK PANTHER Production Designer Shares Amazing Behind-the-Scenes Set Photos

We’ll never be able to actually visit Black Panther‘s Wakanda, but we’d be pretty thrilled if we got to do the next best thing: visit the movie’s incredible sets. Because they look just as amazing in real life as they do on the big screen.

Thankfully we have the next best thing because Hannah Beachler, the movie’s production designer, shared these incredible behind-the-scene set photos on Twitter. They include sneak peeks at M’Baku’s throne room, T’Challa’s personal office, and the Hall of Kings in Necropolis, where new rulers are given the heart flower before they are buried in sand to visit the ancestral plane.

Without any CGI to make it look like he is sitting high up in the mountains, M’Baku’s seat of power looks like it would be a breathtaking museum exhibit. Although we know how beautiful it looked in the movie.

And while T’Challa’s office probably wouldn’t have been listed in our top five favorite sets from the film, we might have to reconsider after seeing the incredible detail it contains. Not just because it looks very regal, befitting a great and wise king, but because we definitely need to spend time with that intricate scale model of Wakanda.

But our favorite photo is the Hall of Kings, which doesn’t look like a set, it looks like a real place. It’s so big now we’re not sure Killmonger didn’t actually burn the rest of the heart flowers. How could he do that!?

Oh, wait, right—Wakanda’s not real and that’s just a set.

One we really want to visit.

Which set from the movie was your favorite? Which one would you most want to spend time in? Tell us in the comments below.
