Black Panther Returns to The Theater for One Week in Celebration of Black History with Free Screenings





After a year of breaking records, Marvel Studios’ Black Panther is returning to theaters in a one week engagement. In celebration of Black History, free screenings of Black Panther will be shown at select AMC Theaters for one week running from February 1-7. AMC will show the movie at 250 locations in the U.S. Participating theaters will offer two free showings each day during that week.

Since opening in February 2018, Black Panther has amassed over a billion dollars in sales making it the highest grossing superhero film of all time in North America. Following this success Panther has scored seven Academy Award nominations, including an historic Best Picture nod, and has won for Best Ensemble at the Screen Actors Guild Awards.  Starring Chadwick Boseman as T’Challa, Michael B. Jordan as Killmonger, and Lupita Nyong’o as Nakia, Black Panther changed the dialogue on the  marketability of Black films. For many African Americans the film represented a new narrative on Black culture.

Disney is also giving a $1.5 million grant to support UNCF (United Negro College Fund), an organization dedicated to helping minority students gain access to college education and fund their higher education.
