Get Ready to See Your Favorite Black Panther Characters in Avengers: Infinity War
Avengers: Infinity War will make its debut in theaters on April 27, and judging from the latest trailer, a good portion of the war will take place in Wakanda! While there are lingering questions about who will die (stay safe out there, Captain America) and whether Hawkeye will make an appearance, one thing is for sure: at least four of our favorite Black Panther characters will be returning in the film. Keep reading to find out who, then learn why Thanos wants to destroy half the universe.

Shuri
The smartest 16-year-old in Wakanda is returning for battle in Infinity War. That's right, Shuri, played by Letitia Wright, will be offering her knowledge to the Avengers to help stop Thanos from wreaking havoc on the world. After witnessing her genius in Black Panther, there's no doubt in our minds that if anyone can invent technology capable of thwarting him, Shuri can.

Okoye and T'Challa
T'Challa (Chadwick Boseman) and his all-female army, known as the Dora Milaje, will be fighting side by side against Thanos (Josh Brolin) and his minions when the battle comes to Wakanda. This also means Okoye, played by Danai Gurira, will return to kick ass and take names. Wig flew!

M'Baku
Everyone's favorite vegetarian is fighting the good fight once more in Infinity War. After helping save Wakanda from Killmonger's wrath, M'Baku (Winston Duke) and his Jabari tribe appear to be allies with T'Challa and the Avengers in the war against Thanos. We can't wait to see his handsome face (and hopefully hear his infectious laugh) on the big screen again.
