In Black Panther, Angela Bassett plays Queen Ramada, T’Challa’s mother.
It was that energy and spirit that warned her early on that Black Panther was going to be something special, and the movie definitely went on to prove her right.
She doesn’t have an especially large role in the movie, but she does provide a strong anchor that helps keep things together after Killmonger takes the throne.
Bassett is great in the role, and the actress could feel the energy on the set as everyone was collaborating to make what would become one of the highest grossing superheroes films ever made.
