Eric Killmonger Introduction Scene

00:15:18 – 00:19:20

This scene is where we get introduced to T’Challa’s cousin, Eric Killmonger, at the Museeum of Great Britain. He is in the African American History section of the Museum and questions a museum employee about the artifacts they have in glass cases. He comes across a pickaxe and asks where it’s from, which the woman replies that it was from Benin in the seventh century. He corrects her by saying that Great Britain stole it from Wakanda and that he is taking it back. She asks for security to escort him out, then collapses after being poisoned. This begins the elaborate scheme of stealing the Vibranium weapon through disguises and violence.
