“Black Panther” Star Letitia Wright Criticized By Actor Don Cheadle And Fans For Sharing Video Questioning COVID Vaccine
Beloved “Black Panther” star Letitia Wright is currently trending on Twitter and this time it’s not for good reasons. The actress recently took to Twitter to share an anti-vaxxer video that many fans were against.
In the YouTube clip, the presenter questions the safety and efficacy of vaccines in general, and gives fact-free opinions on what’s possibly in the COVID-19 vaccine and why it could be extremely dangerous. Letitia, who plays T’Challa’s sister, Shuri, in the hit film included prayer hands emoji with her post.

Fans clearly weren’t here for her post as they bombarded the star with angry tweets, calling her out for spreading misinformation. In response, Letitia tweeted: “if you don’t conform to popular opinions. but ask questions and think for yourself….you get cancelled.”

Meanwhile, Don Cheadle, a fellow MCU star, also weighed in on her video tweet and let’s just say he wasn’t here for it at all too. He said, “jesus… just scrolled through. hot garbage. every time i stopped and listened, he and everything he said sounded crazy and fkkkd up. i would never defend anybody posting this. but i still won’t throw her away over it. the rest i’ll take off twitter. had no idea.”
This Friday morning, Wright shared another tweet to clarify her intentions: “my intention was not to hurt anyone, my ONLY intention of posting the video was it raised my concerns with what the vaccine contains and what we are putting in our bodies. Nothing else.”
