Ryan Coogler regrets killing Andy Serkis' character in 'Black Panther'

"Black Panther" director Ryan Coogler says he regrets killing Andy Serkis' character, Ulysses Klaue, in his record-breaking blockbuster.

In an interview with the Toronto Sun, Coogler admitted that he was not sure if it was the best move to kill off Klaue.

"I like Klaue. I was bugged by having to do that. It's tough when you have to kill characters off and I really did love that character," Coogler said.

The filmmaker went on to say, "I love Andy, he's a lovely person. But again, it's one of those things where when you've got so many people in a movie, some of them have to go. Klaue in this movie, he's just having a good time.

"Every scene he's in, he's walking in like it's the best day of his life. He's got a swagger to him that's interesting and for me it was cool to see Andy act like that. It was a real pleasure."
