Letitia Wright hospitalised after stunt injury on set for ‘Black Panther’ sequel


Letitia Wright was hospitalised earlier today (August 25) while filming a stunt on the set of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

The actress has reportedly since been released from the hospital in Boston, US after receiving treatment for minor injuries.

Entertainment Weekly has reported that the incident isn’t expected to have an impact on Wakanda Forever’s filming schedule.

Wright is reprising her role as T’Challa’s sister, Shuri, in the follow-up to Black Panther (2018). There are scant details about the sequel film’s plot, however, it will continue the story of Marvel’s Wakanda after the death of T’Challa, who was portrayed by the late Chadwick Boseman.
