Okoye - All Fight & Abilities Scenes #1 'Black Panther (2018)' 'Avengers" Infinity War (2018)' Okoye is the General of the Dora Milaje and the head of Wakandan armed forces and intel. Portrayed by: Danai Gurira
I swear the Dora Milaje are the most badass women to ever grace the MCU: they're strong, they work together, they're compassionate. And they have a great theme.
Okoye in that red dress in the South Korea sequence is so iconic. When she throws the guy over the balcony and then gracefully leaps down to the ground floor- gorgeous but powerful!
"For Wakanda... without a question" I love how she said that while blinking. You can see that her heart is breaking but quickly pull herself together and got her resolution back.
2:07 That scream of pure, unbridled rage and grief at the murder of her sister in arms. Without that fancy suit, Killmonger would have been dead inside of two seconds.
Okoye's expressions are so strong. You can laugh at her mocking face seeing the Hulk stumbling or get emotional to see the despair on her face when the Panther is gone. Love that actress.
Okay but she is fucking deadly with that vibranium spear, she’s mastered it as a defensive weapon, long range, melee, and even a perfect cap like- projectile. I’d love to see her and her spear vs cap and the shield.
@@daebi37 I mean her plot armor is literal vibranium lol it’s sewn into her guard outfit and the spear is long and good for defense, the only weak point she really has is the exposed head
Well I hope Ayo vs John in Falcon and Winter Soldier Eps 4 can give you a glimpse of what will happen when the spear and Dora Milaje meet the shield and... captain? 🤪
@@itsmebutchukoy i don't think shuri would be fit for black phanter... Because her character is the Genius Smart type. She is good as a support/long range hero type. But Okoye... She is the fighting type character. She fit for the BlackPhanter
What makes that statement more powerful is the fact W'akabi (if I've spelt it right) is her husband and she didn't hesitate when she said it and backed that up pointing her spear at him he knew better than to test that theory
@@wickedwitchoftheeast88 Love that part!! She's a general, second only to the Black Panther, and warrior for her country and its people, she's long since made all else a lesser priority. She'd likely die for her husband, but she'd die and kill her husband for her homeland; he was an idiot if he ever thought otherwise.

FLAWLESS character. Danai is a beautiful talented queen. Okoye was one of the best creations of MCU (a supporting role with full potencial to be main role, like Olivia Munn did with Psylocke)
Who else loves the Dora Milaje, because they are badass females and are respected for their fighting skills by ever single male superhero? And they got not overly sexualized clothings and still have a very satisfying beauty in their fighting style? Like, they are actually good roles models for young girls, because they are strong, they are respected, they are beautiful, elegant and PROUD to be who they are? We needed someone like he Dora Milaje!
I came back here after watching Wakanda Forever. Okoye is one of the most baddest characters in the Mcu. She truly shined in the second movie and her character growth was beautiful. She never fails to amaze me.
Okoye is everything we needed in a strong support character! Funny, badass, charismatic, and intelligent! They couldn’t have chosen a better actor than Danai!!
@@anthonytaylor7928 By support character I mean based on the story that’s presented she is not a main character. She’s a background character to the Black Panther story. Black Widow is a member of the Avengers…she has her own movie. So no I didn’t say that about Scarlet Johansson.🤷🏾♂️
I know what a support character is .but let me ask u still when Scarlett Johansson was a support character in the avengers series before she got her own black widow movie lead did you say that???
@@Mac.Eunique of course not u didn't say that about Scarlett Johansson that's because the white chicks get all of the lead roles along with the marketing and promotion in MCU where is danai lead role and her own movie with major marketing and promotion ?
I remember from an interview, one of the questions was "Would you rather be hunted down by the Avengers or the Dora Milajae?" Shoot, the Avengers will take longer. I would not want the Dora to hunt me down, they'd already be at my door.
I loooooove the chug chug chant whenever okoye and her milajes shows up. It really glorifies her scene and give her distinctive theme amongst the super soldiers, mutant and gods. Dora Milaje and Okoye...Danai Gurira is perfectly casted to lead this divine female warriors. More of them please MCU. ANYWHERE!!
I just realized something. The Dora Milage actually beat Killmonger! At least could have. If it wasn't for Killmonger's suit absorbing their power! Then using it against them.
the echo each time she fights. her battle cry when she kicked that guy off the balcony, her accuracy throwing the spear. the fact that she stood up to a black panther who also has the weapons, but the gear, strength, speed, and instinct. she still tried. my respect and I'm glad she's going more of the character.
She was a REALLY good character in infinity war really liked her even in black panther 👌Ahhh infinity war... such a good movie that was wish I could watch it afresh back in April 2018😍😍
She should be the next black panter. She might not be a royal but she deserve to be one and we also saw her undieng loyalty to wakanda even to the point of killing her lover.
I'm just really happy that Okoye didn't pull a Sakura on W'kabi (if you don't know, Sakura had a chance to take down and even kill Sasuke but was too caught up in her wetness to kill him)
Her Spear work is absolutely authentic and correct. Extremely well done. Whoever taught the actress knows it well.. Best scenes... Well choreographed.. I have been studying weapons since I was 5 years old when I started using staffs and swords... She did very well.. I am retired special forces, and her sword work is also very good... I am not even into black chicks, but she protrays the character very well... and the piece was well done... She looks very good.... Well done.... I am impressed at how she learned those skills. I have been told she is also on walkind dead.. I want to see well she handles a katana....... I expected Black Panther to be a woke nightmare.. I was surprised... It was a really, really good film.... And Not what I expected at all... I am old enough I remember the first black panther comic when it came out.... Wild.... Good show...
