Black Panther’s Danai Gurira Is as Badass in Real Life as She Is on Screen

Not only is Danai a talented actress, but she's also a great storyteller. In 2015, Danai's play, Eclipsed debuted on Broadway. The show follows a group of five women through the challenges they encounter during the second Liberian civil war in 2003. The success of the play garnered six nominations at the 2016 Tony awards, including one for best play. Eclipsed is also the first Broadway play to ever have a female writer, director, and all-female cast.
