‘Black Panther’ Star Blasts Media for Editing out ‘Massive Part Where I Give God the Glory’
“Black Panther” star Letitia Wright throws shade at journalists and the media for ignoring her Christian faith.
The British actress, who was the biggest box office star in 2018 for her role as Shuri in Marvel’s “Black Panther” and “Avengers: Infinity War,” tweeted Monday — two days before Harper’s Bazaar named her as one of their “Women of the Year,” but did not mention her faith. . .

Haha I still love you and God will still be praised 🙏🏾💜
