In most versions of the Black Panther comic mythos, Nakia eventually finds herself mutated by Killmonger into a creature called Malice.
One of Black Panther’s central recurring villains, Killmonger is the son of a Wakandan traitor who was exiled for giving aid to perennial Panther enemy Klaw.
Meanwhile, Lupita Nyong’o is now officially confirmed to be playing Nakia, one the Dora Milaje – a sect of warrior women who are sworn to protect and fight alongside The Black Panther.
