So far not much has been revealed about Marvel’s upcoming Black Panther movie, but star of the film, Lupita Nyong’o, has now shared some interesting new details about the story.
Nyong’o told Entertainment Weekly at the San Diego Comic-Con over the weekend, that her character, Nakia, is a member of the Black Panther’s elite squad of female bodyguards, the Dora Milaje and she may have a complicated relationship with the squad’s leader, Okoye:
“The story is that the Black Panther’s leadership is being threatened by two foes that come together, so Black Panther gets the help of the CIA and the Dora Milaje to try and defeat the enemy. Oh dear. Someone’s gonna fire me shortly. I have to shut up now.”

We know that one of the “two foes,” is Erik Killmonger, played by Michael B. Jordan. The other one is unconfirmed, but it’s likely to be Ulysses Klaw, portrayed by Andy Serkis.
Black Panther stars Chadwick Boseman in the title role and is directed by Creed‘s Ryan Coogler. It hits theaters in February 2018.
