It's got to be a decent balance, because to me T'Challa is more stoic comedy, straight faced and all. At least that's what I got from him in my limited knowledge. I don't want an I'm Gonna Git U Sucka Africa or a cooning nonsense, either.
I have a question on my own project:
I know Stephen King says back stories are like assholes. "Everybody has one and nobody cares,"but I believe it is central to understanding my character's motivation.
as a new author I can't afford to start with the slower backstory. I plan on starting with the day before the kill, the kill, the depression afterward and backstory dealing with her training,before jumping to the present and finishing my protagonists rampage.
I understand that it is not optimum, but a person doesn't just kill, at least not to me. they are shown to kill by a sensei of sorts,and the lessons instill discipline. I don't know how much or how little time I will devote to the lessons, but I want to do more than glaze over the fact that they take place.
I don't want my character to be, or even seem to the audience as a 45 caliber weapon, but more like a ninja sword that was crafted over a long period Of time. 45 caliber weapons can go off at any time under the slightest amount of pressure, whilst a ninja sword took time and discipline to create and though equally as deadly, has far more stability. this also works to make the protagonist more believable.
in the very first Iron Man movie, and in Ant Man, the protagonist took days to do the slightest of moves and weeks to become proficient. while the primary antagonist jumped in the suit and kicked ass like they had lived in the suit their entire lives. that bothered me. I know that is a comic book character, but still the fact that the antagonist didn't put in the time to become good didn't make sense. Is anybody feeling me here? how should I proceed?

Good interview. At the 3:32 mark, he's talks about the Black Panther rumors.
Black Panther = King Arthur + Batman.
Thoughts?
I would love BP to have a dry almost Blade sense of humor
and the ability for T'challa to kinda be Tony Stark/Bruce Wayne like and Panther be the stoic Batman...
rough draft
Scene:
A group from the outside comes to visit and supposedly 'plead' with Wakanda to join them
T'Challa aka Charlie has returned and is still 'acting' like an Americanized trust fund stereotypical rich Black kid amusing the contingent but infuriating the native people present.
His cousin (who many want to be the heir to the throne) is mortified and ready to physically attack T'Challa but their uncle pulls him back and whispers in his ear...
"Calm yourself. Do not be fooled. See how they lower their guard and smile and accept him into their world. It is because they believe they are superior they NEED to feel this. No matter how false. Let your cousin dance with his mask on as they smile and laugh they expose their true selves their strengths, their weaknesses, their soft underbelly. It as at that moment when the panther strikes with one decisive blow. And he smiles."
