‘Black Panther’: KIllmonger Challenges T’Challa in New Clip

Marvel Studios has released a new clip from Black Panther.

The clip shows Erik Killmonger (Michael B. Jordan) explaining the path his life has taken as he challenges T’Challa (Chadwick Boseman) in Wakanda.

Take a look at the video above.

During a visit to the Black Panther set, executive producer Nate Moore explained what it is Killmonger is after in the film.

“The interesting comparison we’ve been making, and this is going to sound crazy, but we’ve always thought of the Black Panther as a James Bond kind of movie, right?” Moore explained during a press visit to the Black Panther set. “This big, globetrotting epic, but in talking with Ryan Coogler, the director, one of the things that he also liked was this sort of Godfather kind of storytelling. When I say ‘Godfather’ it’s the idea that, it’s very much a story about family and a story about an organization where new leadership is taking place. Much like the Godfather, you have the five families, right? They’re all vying for power, and in this case, it’s power over Wakanda. I think Killmonger sees Wakanda as something that could be used differently than it currently is in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and that puts him directly at odds with T’Challa.”

How exactly Killmonger plans to use Wakanda remains to be seen, but if he’s willing to team up with Ulysses Klaue (Andy Serkis) to acquire that power, then he must have big plans.
