Black Panther actress Letitia Wright shares that director Ryan Coogler attempted to setup the introduction of a female version of the hero in the sequels.
Despite not being able to setup the possibility for a female iteration of the Vibranium suit-wearing legend, Coogler was able to brilliantly accomplish the job he set out to do in Black Panther.
Speaking with Variety while doing the press rounds for Black Panther, Wright briefly talked about her future as Shuri and possible character progression for her down the line, including potentially also suiting up as the female Panther.
With such a job well done, Marvel Studios would be remiss not to tap the 31-year-old director again to helm the sequel.
