Since San Diego Comic-Con 2022 and the first trailer dedicated to Black Panther 2 Wakanda Forever, many people have been wondering who will succeed T’Challah in the role of the black panther. For some, the choice was not as obvious as Shuri’s, since other candidates could claim the inheritance. The names of Nakia, Ramonda and even Killmonger circulated among fans, who saw in the new costume revealed by the Comic-Con 2022 trailer some big similarities with that of the character played by Michael B. Jordan in 2018. Let’s say their theories went a little too far, and that we should not take the lead. Thanks to LEGO toys leak (definitely), we can now be 100% positive: it is indeed Shuri, T’Challah’s sister who will resume her role as a Wakanda superhero within the Avengers. Several LEGO sets present the character with his Black Panther outfit and his face uncovered. The LEGO character sports the same new haircut as Shuri in this sequel and also reveals that she will always be accompanied by her two big guns that she can attach to her hands. Shuri in the role of the new Black Panther, there was no longer any doubt, especially when we learned last summer that actress Laeticia Wright had suffered a serious injury, freezing the filming for almost 5 months.
