What Will The Consequences Be For Wakanda Coming Clean?
Black Panther‘s first post-credits scene is a continuation of the big decision that T’Challa came to in the movie’s final moments – to tell the rest of the world about Wakanda’s secrets. The sequence saw the king making a speech to the United Nations about how his country would begin sharing its knowledge, wealth and technology, hopefully with the aim of making the world a better place.
This scene framed the move as a positive thing, as it saw T’Challa taking Wakanda into the 21st century and using its power to help out the rest of mankind. While those are some lofty ideals, though, there’ve got to be some serious consequences to suddenly lifting the lid on everything Wakanda has been keeping secret for hundreds of years. For one thing, T’Challa will surely run into lots of political issues, though we imagine these will be settled off-screen as they’re not particularly interesting.
If a Black Panther 2 does happen, though – which it surely will – we can see the sequel exploring the magnitude of what T’Challa has done. No doubt he’ll have a lot of civil unrest on his hands from his own people, particularly M’Baku and the J’Bari tribe, for tearing up Wakandan tradition. The country will also likely have a ton of unwanted attention from the outside world from now on. It could even become a tourist hotspot.
