The newBlack Panther: Wakanda Foreverclip, which was shared byRotten Tomatoes, features Thorne’s Williams in what seems like her first meeting with Danai Gurira’s Okoye andLetitia Wright’s Princess Shuri. The moment takes place in Williams' dorm room, as she is confirmed to be a teenager attending college, with Okoye and Shuri trying to get her to come to Wakanda with them. When Williams asks the two visiting ladies to leave, Okoye comments on how the youngsters treat their guests. Williams then throws a desk speaker in her direction, which she immediately slices in half with her spear.
Both Shuri and Williams are shocked that Okoye brought her spear, but what’s a warrior without her weapon? One key moment in the clip is when Okoye refers to Shuri as “princess,” which is a callback to the firstBlack PantherwhereBoseman’s T’Challa was king. The comical scene ends with Williams making fun of Okoye’s haircut after the latter threatens that they would take her back to Wakanda “conscious or unconscious.” The first meeting does not go quite well, but the humor in it is bound to bring a smile to the viewers’ faces. In addition, the latestBlack Panther: Wakanda Forevertrailer that Marvel has revealed confirms that Williams will end up coming to Wakanda.
ThelatestBlack Panther: Wakanda Forevertrailershows Williams working with Shuri in her lab, and creating a prototype suit. It is comic book accurate, with Ironheart’s red, gold, and silver hues retained in her suit. The moment she first wears it in the trailer is reminiscent of 2008’sIron Manwhen Robert Downey Jr.’s Tony Stark first wore the Iron Man suit.
Black Panther: Wakanda Foreveris scheduled to release in theaters on June 03, 2025.
