Toyota-owned Lexus dropped an extended version of its action-packed Super Bowl LII ad, “Long Live the King,” today, showcasing both the 2018 Lexus LS 500 and the upcoming Marvel Studios superhero film, Black Panther, set to hit theaters on Feb. 16.

In it, we see King T’Challa (the Black Panther, aka actor Chadwick Boseman) kicking villain ass and doing some crazy stunts (including diving from the top of some sort of scaffolding through the sunroof of the luxury sports car), as he races to a world leadership conference.
