Lupita Nynong'o Chats With MensXP About Her Special Relationship With 'Black Panther'
‘Black Panther’ is going to hit the theatres soon, but our excitement is already hitting outer space, because the sky is too small a limit for this superhero movie.
When the Marvel Cinematic Universe decided to give a chance to Black Panther to find his own identity as the new king of Wakanda, little did anyone know that it will gradually shape up to become one of the biggest superhero movies to release this year.

Despite gorging on the numerous teasers and trailers of ‘Black Panther’, we still feel that our hunger is not satiated and director Ryan Coogler deserves all the credit to take our excitement to the pinnacle.
Unless you have been living under a rock or haven’t been following this space to know what we’ve been up to, you will know that MensXP attended the Black Panther red carpet at Seoul, South Korea, where we caught up with the cast of ‘Black Panther’ and got some exclusive deets from our beloved stars.

While, Ryan Coogler was basking in the popularity and the hype this movie is enjoying; we got in touch with another pivotal character from the movie, without whom the movie wouldn’t have managed to create that much of an impact. If you’re thinking about Michael B Jordan’s Eric Killmonger, we love him too but it’s not him. We’re talking about the Nakia, one of the strongest characters who finds herself torn between her duty towards the government and her friendship with T’Challa.

Lupita Nyong’o who plays the beautiful spy got candid with us and spoke about her character, “I think what makes her unique is she has a very quiet sense of power. The fact that she’s a spy means she has to be subtle and to have an impact without necessarily pulling attention.” Lupita even hinted at a special relationship between her character and T’Challa.
Earlier, Chadwick Boseman shared his experience about the movie and now the proud director Ryan Coogler gave us an insight on his experience working on ‘Black Panther’. In a video interview with MensXP, Coogler said, “It was extremely thrilling to make ‘Black Panther’. We’ve put in a lot of hard work. We got a chance to take a lot and strengthen ourselves and be proud of this film.” Here’s what he said.
