An Interview with Executive Producer Nate Moore
I got to sit down with Executive Producer Nate Moore during my time in Los Angeles for the Avengers: Infinity War premiere, and got to see some of the bonus footage before anyone else. I LOVE seeing behind-the-scenes shots and hearing stories and anecdotes about how the films are made. I think it's so fascinating to hear the first-hand experiences of the actors and filmmakers.
We previewed 3 bonus features, including "The Crowning of a New King," which is a behind-the-scenes compilation of how they put Wakanda together, "Warriors Within," which tells us more about Wakanda’s women " Hidden Kingdom Revealed," which shows how they crafted the different tribes that make up Wakanda.

As for the deleted scenes, we also asked why some of the scenes are cut from the final version of the film. Moore said, "Pace. Our director's cuts are always really long and it’s no secret. With a script, some things feel very necessary storytelling wise. When you watch the movie... [some things] actually work being inferred. For instance, there’s a great scene in the deleted scenes between Okoye and W’Kabi, after Killmonger has taken the throne and it’s their differing points of view as to which side to take. It’s a fantastic scene. Danai and Daniel Kaluuya do a fantastic job. And we kept it in every cut of the movie through testing because we thought it was so important for people to understand the relationship. And because it seemed so good frankly. And when we pulled it, we found that audiences understood just as well but the pace issue we had for that part of the movie went away. So, people got really frustrated in waiting for T’Challa to come back. So, the shorter we made that area, the better it played."
One thing I always like to think about, and I mentioned this in my Avengers: Infinity War review, is can you watch this movie as a stand-alone film, not knowing much about the Marvel Cinematic Universe? Nate Moore confirmed that the answer was yes. He added, "When we were building this story, one thing that Kevin [Feige] actually said very early on was, 'I think there’s enough in this property that we don’t have to have a lot of different intersections because we think it stands alone.' So, that’s also why you don’t see Tony Stark or Steve Rogers, which I think we could have made a case for some of those characters to sort of naturally intersect. But there was so much storytelling and so much detail that we actually were able to keep a lot of that stuff out. And I think it helps the movie just feel like it’s own experience.
