‘Black Panther 2’ Star Letitia Wright Addresses Anti-Vaccine Claims

Letitia Wright refuted reports of her spreading anti-vaccine views on the set of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.

Last year, Black Panther actress Letitia Wright shared a controversial video on Twitter questioning the COVID-19 vaccine. Wright notably faced criticism online as a result of the post, which has since been deleted.

Reports then surfaced last week that Letitia Wright was still spreading anti-vax views on the set of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Following the recent claims, Wright took to Instagram to address them:

“It saddens me to have to address the reports published by The Hollywood Reporter on October 6th 2021. The report spoke about my conduct on the set of Black Panther 2. I honestly assert that this was completely untrue. Anyone who knows me or has worked with me, knows that I work incredibly hard at my craft & my main focus is always to do work that’s impactful and inspiring. That has been & will continue to be my only focus.”

Here is the synopsis for the first Black Panther film:

After the death of his father, the king of Wakanda, young T’Challa returns home to the isolated high-tech African nation to succeed to the throne and take his rightful place as king. But when a powerful enemy reappears, T’Challa’s mettle as king – and Black Panther – is tested when he’s drawn into a formidable conflict that puts the fate of Wakanda and the entire world at risk. Faced with treachery and danger, he must release the full power of Black Panther to defeat his foes and secure the safety of his people and their way of life.

Directed by Ryan Coogler, the film stars Chadwick Boseman, Michael B. Jordan, Lupita Nyong’o, Danai Gurira, Martin Freeman, Daniel Kaluuya, Letitia Wright, Winston Duke, Angela Bassett, Forest Whitaker, and Andy Serkis.

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever will hit theaters on July 8, 2022. Stay tuned for all the latest news surrounding Letitia Wright’s future in the MCU, and be sure to subscribe to Heroic Hollywood’s YouTube channel for more original video content!
