The greatest threat facing the people of Wakanda and Talokan in WakandaForever is one that is all too familiar.
In the world of writer-director Ryan Coogler’s Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, as well as the Marvel Cinematic Universe more broadly, there are plenty of enemies threatening these characters. There are those like the menancing Thanos that are able to snap millions out of existence or the evil Ego who consumes entire planets.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Ryan Coogler Explored Colonialism in 'Black Panther' This is nothing new for Coogler as the first film, Black Panther, was explicitly about how Wakanda itself had managed to remain unscathed from the brutality around them by keeping hidden. However, the internal conflict was about whether this was something that should change so that Wakanda could help those around the world who weren’t lucky enough to be born in an invisible kingdom.
As we get to observe the vibrant worlds of both Wakanda and Talokan, we see societies that have been able to flourish precisely because they have been protected from the colonialism of the past. While the story frequently shies away from grappling with the full narrative and thematic scope of this element of the story, it is also baked into every frame. It is seen in Namor’s elaborate paintings of Talokan history and the joyous yet tragic funeral ceremony in Wakanda.
When you peel back all the spectacle that plays out, there is a more honest undercurrent to Black Panther: Wakanda Forever's worldbuilding that often proves to be sharp in identifying what it is that is behind the threats that face down the characters. Unfortunately, many of these intriguing ideas don’t get as explored as deeply as one would have hoped.
