Following last night’s historic win for Black Panther at the Screen Actors Guild Awards, Disney CEO Bob Iger has announced that the hit film will return to theaters for Black History Month.
Black Panther won for Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture, the first super hero movie and the highest grossing movie to do so. The film also won for Outstanding Action Performance by a Stunt Ensemble in a Motion Picture.
Today, Iger announced that Black Panther will be returning to 250 participating AMC Theaters from February 1st through 7th to celebrate Black History Month. The Walt Disney Company will also be making a $1.5 million donation to the UNCF, to benefit its mission of providing education for minorities.
