Lara Croft is the fiercely independent daughter of an eccentric adventurer who vanished when she was scarcely a teen. Now a young woman of 21 without any real focus or purpose, Lara navigates the chaotic streets of trendy East London as a bike courier, barely making the rent, and takes college courses, rarely making it to class. Determined to forge her own path, she refuses to take the reins of her father¹s global empire just as staunchly as she rejects the idea that he¹s truly gone. Advised to face the facts and move forward after seven years without him, even Lara can¹t understand what drives her to finally solve the puzzle of his mysterious death.

King T’Challa attends a UN meeting in Vienna, accompanied by Wakandans including Nakia (Lupita Nyong’o) and Okoye (Danai Gurira). At this meeting he publicly announces that his nation of Wakanda will offer aid to anyone in need, and a UN member then asks him how a “nation of farmers” could help the rest of the world. T’Challa’s smile at this question (possibly implying that he will finally reveal to the rest of the world that Wakanda isn’t actually a third-world country, but that it has vastly superior technology to any other country because of its supply of the super-metal ‘Vibranium’.)
