Meet T'Challa
T’Challa returns to Wakanda to take the throne after his father’s death. Black Panther tests his responsibilities as both king and protector when a challenge to his rule puts his country in danger. Chadwick Boseman portrays T’Challa in the film and in the catalog records collected here.
Official source · Disney Movies ↗Follow the responsibility behind the title
Watch how T’Challa listens to the people around him, especially when their advice pulls in different directions. His decisions can be read as those of a person, a family member and a leader at the same time. That tension makes the quieter discussions as useful to follow as the confrontations.

Where to start
Civil War introduces T’Challa before his solo film. Follow it with Black Panther for the fuller introduction to Wakanda, then use the Infinity War guide for the next ensemble story. This profile is specifically T’Challa’s; sharing the Black Panther title does not merge other characters into his records.
