Actress Letitia Wright has resumed filming on the Black Panther sequel, almost five months after being injured when a stunt went wrong.

The British star, who plays Shuri, was said at the time of the accident in August to have suffered minor injuries.

But Marvel’s bosses later said she turned out to have sustained “a critical shoulder fracture and a concussion with severe side effects”.

Filming on Black Panther: Wakanda Forever was suspended in November.

A spokesperson for the star said she has now recovered and production has resumed.

Wright’s Princess of Wakanda character is expected to play a bigger part in the blockbuster’s sequel. The late Chadwick Boseman led the 2018 film and his role has not been re-cast following his death in 2020.
