In a recent interview, Serkis opened up about his approach to playing Killmonger. He explained that he wanted to create a character that audiences could understand, even if they didn't agree with his actions. "I wanted to explore the complexities of a man who feels marginalized and disenfranchised," Serkis said. "Killmonger has a very specific worldview, and it's understandable why he would see things the way he does."
Martin Freeman, who plays Ulysses Klaue in the film, praised Serkis' performance. "Andy is a master of characterization," Freeman said. "He brings such depth and nuance to every role he plays. Killmonger is no exception." Freeman also discussed his own character's interactions with Killmonger, highlighting the moral dilemmas that Klaue faces in the film.
