Quotes

Ryan Coogler

Filmmaker and director of the Black Panther series

“It was a different version of Namor in that script. (T’Challa) had to deal with someone who’s insanely dangerous but, because of this ritual, his son had to be joined at his hip the whole time while he was engaged in negotiations, fights, and s***. His son had to be right there or they’d violate this ritual that had never been broken. So that was what the movie was. It was insane. And Chad was going to kill it, but life goes as it goes.”

“Amongst those eight days, they have to go into the bush without any tools, and the prince has to listen and do everything that’s asked of him by his father, but the rule is for those eight days, the prince can ask the father any question and the father has to answer. It’s during those eight days that Namor (Tenoch Huerta) would’ve staged his attack.”
