‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’ Halts Production As Letitia Wright Recovers From Injury

Although Marvel Studios said at that time that Wright’s injury would not affect the shooting schedule, she has been in London recovering since the accident while production continued around her character, Shuri, the sister of Black Panther T’Challa, the character played in the first film by Chadwick Boseman.

There is no word on how long shooting will be delayed, but the film’s release date is still set for July 8, 2022.

She denied the accusations, though last December she was criticized for retweeting a controversial video by vaccine skeptic Tomi Arayomi, who said that fear was killing people, not COVID-19.
