A museum in Bury St Edmunds has become the new home of costumes from Marvel superhero film, Black Panther.

Visitors to Moyse's Hall Museum can see the Black Panther suit, worn by the late Chadwick Boseman, along with the tribal outfit of warrior Okoye, and a costume worn by Shuri, the Princess of Wakanda.

The clothes are part of the Power of Stories exhibition, which was previously seen in Ipswich's Christ Church Mansion last year.

Black Panther tells the story of T'Challa (Boseman), who, after his father's death, returns home to the powerful African nation of Wakanda to inherit his throne, but must contend with a powerful enemy who threatens to attack his nation.
