All right, so they have three classic antagonists of Black Panther in the movie, Ulysses Klaue, Erik Killmonger, and Man-Ape. Which one of them do you think will serve as the ultimate main antagonist of the movie? The trailer was heavily focused on Ulysses Klaue, and it's said he'll have his arm-cannon weapon. But Killmonger was the first villain they announced, and apparently is planning to overthrow him. Man-Ape apparently is in a tribe that has a rivalry with the royal family.

I know nothing about him, but I would guess Killmonger. Klaue cannot stand toe-to-toe with T'Challa and actually pose a threat. Plus, Michael B. Jordan's face is more well-known to the public, so Marvel probably wants to bank on him. Serkis' face, on the other hand, is always digitally animated behind an ape or gorilla or strange Middle Earth creature.  |

Yeah, the vibe I'm getting is that Klaue will either be a pest villain on the side, or an accomplice for Killmonger, especially since Michael B. Jordan is a rising star. Maybe Killmonger pays Klaue to smuggle weapons to him and help him try to overthrow T'Challa. M'Baku will probably just be one of Killmonger's "attack dogs." I wouldn't be surprised, however, if they keep Klaue around as a recurring rival to T'Challa. In the comics, Klaue was T'Challa's main archenemy, and Andy Serkis probably doesn't command too high of a price tag. |

It looked like Killmonger was the main villain to me. The fight at the falls appears to be early on to me, he's taken to the royal chamber at some point, and then he's shown in a major throw down with the entire Dora Milaje. I think he's pretty big. |

In terminology derived from TV Tropes.com, I think Killmonger is the big bad with Klaue as the evil genius and Man-Ape (if they call him that) is the dragon.

I thought "Black Panther's" great nemesis was a guy named White Republican who's just an average dude in khaki cargo shorts and a polo shirt who's like oblivious to the world around him, and -- wait, is that wrong?
