According to the script, Erik originally had one more line before dies which he says, "It's beautiful, but what are you going to do for everybody in the world who can't see this?" The UN post-credits scene was the original planned ending for the film, taking place immediately after that. However, co-editor Michael P. Shawver said that line posed problems and had to be removed as it didn't fit the character. To resolve that, the current Oakland ending with T'Challa's resolution to start a Wakanda outreach program was added as bookmarking the opening and in spirit, to the cut line that Killmonger told him. Ryan Coogler and Shawver went through the top 10 lists of best endings for movies and found that the closing scene of Il padrino (1972) as the closest to the problem of closing the film properly.
