Chadwick Boseman Explains How His Accent in BLACK PANTHER Defies White Supremacy Ideas
Captain America: Civil War was basically a feature-length preview of Black Panther for me. Ever since we saw Chadwick Boseman playing T’Challa, I was hooked on this character and it is the movie I have been looking forward to the most (outside of The Last Jedi of course). That being said, we learned a bit more about T’Challa recently. In an interview with CNET, Boseman talks about T’Challa’s accent and the idea behind it; explaining:
I love this explanation! It makes sense. Why would someone in a society that has been isolated from the European ideas and is technologically superior, use a European accent? I love the accent he uses and this explanation makes everything a million times better.
Black Panther hits theaters on February 16, 2018.
