Fictional Crush Appreciation: M’Baku

Welcome to our new hump day series, for when you need a little mid-week snack. If you’ve been hanging out with us for any amount of time, you know we have a fictional crush unlimited fictional characters. We’re too excited to celebrate our favorites even more with these weekly appreciation posts.

If only felt right to begin this series with the man who has taken the internet by storm: M’Baku. Played by Winston Duke, M’Baku was one of the greatest parts of Black Panther (next to… every other part, because that movie is amazing). To avoid any movie spoilers, we’re going to stop talking and simply focus on all of this beauty:

Oh hi.

God bless you, EW.

And, while we’re at it, a few photos of the man behind the character:

 

Have you also not been able to get M’Baku’s face out of your head since leaving the theater? Who was your biggest crush in Black Panther?

Let’s chat.
