A digital film still of Danai Gurira and actors as Dora Milaje warriors, and Michael B. Jordan, as the character Erik Killmonger, filming a scene on an outdoor set of the movie Black Panther. Atop a concrete platform, Gurira is on the left side of the image, facing off against Jordan, with Dora Milaje warriors surrounding them in a half circle. Gurira is wearing a Dora Milaje warrior costume. The costume is red and gold with an intricately beaded tabard in orange, brown, and gold. Leather bands surround the chest, waist, and hips. She is also wearing a necklace and arm band of stacked gold rings in the style of the Ndebele tribe's idzila and gold shoulder armor and belt buckle. She holds a silver spear with stacked gold bands towards Jordan. Behind her, the Dora Milaje warriors wear similar costumes, with red beaded tabards and silver armor and rings.
