Angela Bassett is already ready for the Black Panther sequel.
During press for Mission Impossible: Fallout, she spoke about her Marvel Cinematic Universe character, Ramonda, including what Ramonda is doing in the present now that her son, T’Challa, has dissipated into thin air and how Ramonda would be ready to battle in the Black Panther sequel.
“They took my son. My son is gone. But you know, (Wakanda) is 100 years beyond whatever the rest of the world is doing technologically. So, I think we have the means…the technology, the strength (to rebuild).”
On the inevitable Black Panther sequel, Bassett said, “I would kid when we were working, saying, ‘When we come back for (Black Panther 2), she’s going to really get into the game. You’re gonna see some of her skills and (T’Challa will) say, ‘That’s my mama.’ She’s going to throw down. I’m going to say, ‘I used to be a Dora (Milaje),'” she said, referring to the all-female army in Wakanda. And I still have some of those moves. Don’t underestimate mom!”
Let’s hope the writers and Ryan Coogler are listening to the Wakandan Queen and let her have at it!
