The 'Killmonger Cut' meme refers to the specific dreadlock-style fade popularized by Michael B. Jordan’s character, Erik Killmonger, in the 2018 film Black Panther. While initially praised for its style, the haircut became an internet trope as gamers noticed a disproportionate number of Black male characters in video games—ranging from Miles Morales to various NPCs—being designed with the exact same hairstyle. The meme is primarily used to criticize the lack of diverse hair options for Black characters in media, often humorously suggesting that developers only know one way to style Black hair. It serves as both a fashion observation and a critique of creative stagnation in the gaming industry.
