12 Characters Who Will Probably Die In 2018's Biggest Movies

10. Zuri - Black Panther

Black Panther Zuri Forest Whitaker

Why He Should Die: Zuri is one of Wakanda's main spiritual elders and has been described by director Ryan Coogler as "Black Panther's version of Obi-Wan Kenobi."

He will inevitably die in the film because, for starters, he dies in the comics, and because, as an Obi-Wan-type figure, he basically needs to die in order to strengthen T'Challa's resolve.

Zuri of course won't be Wakanda's only casualty, but seeing such a wise, revered figure cut down will no doubt fuel Black Panther's quest for revenge.

How He'll Die: When Erik Killmonger and his men attempt to seize T'Challa's throne late in the movie, expect a defiant Zuri to be made an example of, probably slashed to death by the razor-sharp claws on Killmonger's golden Black Panther suit.
