With the Black Panther sequel will premiere in a few days, Gurira revealed to Collider the only action scene in her entire acting career that she finds most difficult. The actor admitted that she liked Black PantherThe chase in South Korea was particularly taxing, particularly a moment when Gurira had to catch a spear after being thrown from a car. Read what the actor remembered below:

Oh God. I mean, there are so many different moments, but I will say that this time I was filming re-shoots for Black Panther at the same time as The Walking Dead. So since they were both shooting in Atlanta, they said, “Ah, you can just come here and then go there.” So I was exhausted and there was something I had to do for Black Panther in the re-shoots I had done. I slept three hours between Okoye and Michonne. When I came in at the end of the shooting day, I had to get in the armor and do this thing.

In the first movie, I think there’s a moment where you see her being thrown from a car, and she has to catch her spear and cling to it to get on the road. I don’t know if you remember that movie, in Korea, in the Korea series. I was in a harness and had to turn myself around. I had to use my own momentum and turn around, then catch my spear, which they had somehow hovered over my head. My body and my brain just weren’t even interested. They said, “Look, we’re done. You’re crazy. We’re out.” And so it took a lot of effort because I just couldn’t get it, I couldn’t get the coordination done. I was just so exhausted.

And when Ryan somehow thought, “Maybe we just need this part,” I thought, “No, I can do this. I did it on Saturday.” So finally, finally, I somehow clicked on it and I did two takes that really got it, and I was able to pull it off for my character. But yeah, that was, just because of the degree of exhaustion and the precision of the movement at the same time, it wasn’t the easiest day.

Will Black Panther 2’s action surpass its predecessor?

Although the original Black Panther praised for its compelling performances and compelling drama, the climax in act third was not received as warmly as the rest of the film, with its poor CGI effects found to be very distracting by many audiences. Black Panther: Wakanda Forever‘s trailers promise action sequences that will blow those of its predecessors out of the water. With Namor the Sub-Mariner (Tenoch Huerta) shown to lead his submarine army to Wakanda, flood the streets of the capital with water and drown the royal throne room, the upcoming movie’s set pieces are set like nothing the MCU has. ever seen.

After the untimely death of King T’Challa/Black Panther (Chadwick Boseman), Wakanda is reeling from the sudden loss. When a new threat arises to confront them without their super-powered protector, Wakanda has their backs against the wall and must work together to stop the invading forces. While it’s yet to be confirmed who will be holding the Black Panther mantle by the end of the film, Okoye and the Dora Milaje will be on the front lines defending their country when Black Panther: Wakanda Forever will premiere on November 11.
