Choosing Marvel's New Black Panther and Who Awaits in the Ancestral Plane
Of course, if you’ve seen the movie you know that—as expected—it’s Shuri , sister of T’Challa , who takes on the mantle of Black Panther, after she recreates the heart-shaped herb using the bracelet given to her by Namor . She takes the herb hoping to see her dead mother or brother on the ancestral plane only to see... her dead cousin, Erik Killmonger , instead. It’s a shocking moment, both for the audience and, more importantly, Shuri, who is confronted with an enemy as opposed to a loved one.
To dive into all of that, first of all, Marvel had to make the decision that it was Shuri who was going to be Black Panther. And, according to Nate Moore, she was really the only choice. “I think organically that felt narratively the most correct,” he told io9. “Shuri was the closest person to T’Challa, so his passing impacted her the most. Also, remember in the first film, Killmonger burned all the heart-shaped herb.
