Black Panther Director Ryan Coogler, Photographer Craig Easton

Film-maker Ryan Coogler on returning to Black Panther, museums in crisis, and Craig Easton on photographing the same family over thirty years

Filmmaker Ryan Coogler discusses returning to Black Panther after the death of Chadwick Boseman and how that experience has inspired the making of the sequel, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

In the wake of this year鈥檚 annual Museums Association conference which asked its members to 鈥渢o reimagine our future if we are going to survive鈥, Front Row brings together Rowan Brown, CEO of Museums Northumberland and Cllr Gerald Vernon-Jackson, Chair of the Local Government Association鈥檚 Culture, Tourism and Sport Board to discuss how museums are responding to the challenge of the cost of living crisis and rising energy prices.

In 1992 Craig Easton photographed Mandy and Mick Williams and their children for the first time for a series he called Thatcher's Children. In 2016, he was able to reconnect with the family and has continued to photograph them since then. As he prepares to publish the photographs in a new book, Craig talks about taking pictures for posterity.
