The upcoming Marvel film Black Panther is a little more than a year away and the cast just continues to impress with each addition.

Most recently, the newest face to join the impressive cast is The People v. O.J. Simpson and This Is Us star Sterling K. Brown.

According to Shadow and Act, the Emmy winner will join the cast as N'Jobu, a main figure from T'Challa's (Black Panther) past. 

Following the studio's official announcement, Brown took to Twitter to share his excitement on the role:

Brown's addition only continues to prove that this movie boasts one of the Blackest and most experienced casts in Hollywood, featuring the likes of Chadwick Boseman, Michael B. Jordan, Forest Whitaker, Angela Bassett, Lupita Nyong'o, Danai Gurira, Daniel Kaluuya, Winston Duke, Florence Kasumba, and more.

The film will also be directed by Ryan Coogler who brought to life the films Fruitvale Station and Creed.

Marvel's Black Panther hits theaters on February 16, 2018.
