Black Panther: Michael B. Jordan teases the relationship between T’Challa and Killmonger

Cinema 26 July, 2017

Between T’Challa and Killmonger, things are going to be a bit complicated! The proof, Michael B. Jordan has teased the relationship that the two characters maintain in Black Panther!

The first steps of T’Challa as king of the Wakanda will be rather complicated. While he has just lost his father and inherited the throne, he finds himself confronted with Erik Killmonger (Michael B. Jordan), one of Black Panther’s bad guys. And if the film promises to be so interesting, it’s partly because of this character, who is one of the most regular and striking enemies of our superhero. Why ? Because at bottom, Killmonger is there to challenge T’Challa on his ground. The two men do not share the same vision of the world but, in addition, Killmonger is persuaded that he would make a much better king than his rival. So much to tell you that the relationship between the two characters is going to be tense! Moreover, Michael B. Jordan has teased on the sidelines of Marvel’s panel of the Comic Con of San Diego the link that the superhero and the villain would share in Black Panther. And to describe their interactions, the actor made a rather remarkable comparison with two other characters rivals of the comics Marvel …

Know that we must expect that the relationship between T’Challa and Killmonger looks quite like the one … Charles Xavier and Magnéto in the X-Men! He told Entertainment Weekly: “T’Challa and I have two totally different approaches to how we should rule, and we see these two opposing visions of one another. That is, their relationship somewhat resembles that between Professor Xavier and Magneto, and that is all I can say for the moment. ” That makes us want, especially that the films Marvel always sin a little by the inconsistency of their bad guys. We hope that Killmonger will be able to stand out from the crowd, especially as he will have to stand out against other super villains like Ulysse Klaue (Andy Serkis), who will have undergone some changes when he is found in Black Panther. .. But the fact that it is interpreted by Michael B. Jordan and the fact that Ryan Coogler is to the realization of the film give us in any case very good hope!
