One of the main actresses of Marvel’s ‘Black Panther’, has had to be taken to the hospital after suffering some injuries during the filming of the film’s sequel.
A spokesperson told Variety that Letitia Wright, who plays beloved Shuri, Princess of Wakanda, was filming some night scenes in Boston when the accident happened. Most of the production of the sequel to “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” has taken place in Atlanta.
“Letitia Wright suffered minor injuries today while filming a stunt for ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,'” the source said. “She is currently receiving care at a local hospital and is expected to be discharged soon.”
The exact details of the incident have not been released, although multiple outlets confirmed that the crash involved a stunt rig and Wright suffered only minor injuries.
Wright’s accident is not expected to negatively affect the filming of the film, according to various media, since this sequel to “Black Panther” has a release date for July 8, 2022.
Last August, Wright lost his on-screen brother, Chadwick Boseman, when he died of colon cancer.
She paid tribute to the late “Black Panther” star on social media at the time, writing, “Words cannot describe how I feel. How we all feel, that they forced us to lose you, to accept this as a new reality. I wish I could say goodbye. “
Marvel boss Kevin Feige confirmed to Deadline in January that they will not replay T’Challa, the role of Boseman, in the sequel.
