Watch of the Week: Eyes of Wakanda

The animated anthology series "Eyes of Wakanda" is the Watch of the Week, expanding the mythology of Wakanda beyond the present day. Developed and executive produced by Ryan Coogler, the series delves into the Afrofuturist world of Wakanda, exploring its past and introducing new characters.

The focus is on a new character, warrior Basha, and former Dora Milaje member Noni, voiced by Jacques Colimon and Winnie Harlow, respectively. The animation style draws inspiration from contemporary artists, creating a visually stunning and culturally resonant look.

The series, with its fast-paced action and emotionally engaging characters, stands out as a promising start in expanding the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) beyond the familiar. The choice to make it a standalone project is seen as a thrilling move that could potentially lead to a larger universe for Wakanda.
