Rumor Has It That Letitia Wright Wants To Leave The Marvel Cinematic Universe Because Of Vaccine Mandates

December 10, 2021 / Posted by:

Like Jason from General Hospital before her, there’s a rumor that Letitia Wright, who plays Shuri in the Black Panther movies, may skip out on a check over vaccine mandates. And not just any check, a Marvel check! Letitia has a history of spreading misinformation about the COVID-19 vaccine, and she was alleged to have spread more misinformation on the set of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Production was reportedly put on pause after Letitia got injured. And then rumors suggested production was being stalled even further because of her resistance to being vaccinated. Now the rumor is that she’s done with Marvel altogether and wants out of a huge franchise that people would literally kill to be a part of because she doesn’t want to get vaccinated.

A source tells Giant Freaking Robot that Letitia is ready to walk away from the MCU:

This information comes to Giant Freakin Robot from a source that has proven to be in the know with past exclusive reports that are now confirmed. And it makes sense that if Letitia Wright is unvaccinated, she wouldn’t want to return to work for the Marvel Cinematic Universe. While the actress herself hasn’t publicly disclosed her vaccination status, both The Hollywood Reporter and Newsweek have heard from their sources that she is unvaccinated. During the summer of 2021, Disney issued a mandate for COVID-19 vaccinations on their sets. That mandate reportedly didn’t apply to Black Panther 2, as it was already underway, but will for future Marvel Cinematic Universe productions. If Letitia Wright is unvaccinated and doesn’t want to change that, she may be frustrated and ready to be done with Marvel/Disney.

The source says that Letitia hasn’t made any moves like officially quitting the production or anything like that. But regardless, the internet is dragging her:

Even if Letitia believes all of the insane bullshit she posts about, such as the video suggesting people may grow new limbs from the vaccine, she’ll win the Gold Medal in the Foolish Olympics if she walks away from Marvel money. If she stays with Marvel, she’d be rich enough to get those “newly-grown limbs” surgically removed!
