When asked if she had been informed of what the future looks like for Shuri, Wright said: "No, I haven't, I will know as soon as you know."
Recently, Wright teased Marvel fans that a third movie was "already in the works", saying: "We need a little bit of a break, we need to regroup, and [director] Ryan [Coogler] needs to get back into his lab, so it's going to take a little while, but we're really excited for you guys to see that."
"I always try to do positive words and positive thinking, and I believe that good words manifest, so I'm manifesting a Black Panther 3, why not?"
However, Wright went on to clarify her comments, saying that she hopes a third instalment of the franchise will be made, but it's not yet official.

"What I tried to say, maybe I didn't do it clearly enough, to clarify, there is always the hope that you would have another film, especially in a franchise," she said in an interview with BuzzFeed.
"If there is to be another film, which I hope there will be, I think there will be. It takes time to make it. You have to go through the script process."
It looks like fans will have to wait a bit longer than expected to see Shuri again.
Black Panther and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever are streaming on Disney+.
