Production of Marvel's Black Panther sequel is being halted to allow star Letitia Wright to recover from an on-set injury sustained in August, entertainment publications report.
Wright played Shuri in 2018's acclaimed Black Panther, set in the scientifically advanced but reclusive fictional African nation of Wakanda.
The film, which has a predominantly black cast, became a cultural milestone, grossing $1.3 billion and being nominated for a Best Picture Oscar award.
Wright was injured while filming a stunt sequence in Boston in late August.
At the time, she was expected to recover soon enough for the shooting schedule to remain uninterrupted, Variety and Hollywood Insider reported.
More details about the injury have not been released but it was initially described as minor.
"Letitia has been recovering in London since September from injuries sustained on the set of 'Black Panther 2' and is looking forward to returning to work early 2022," representatives for the British-Guyanese actor said.
"Letitia kindly asks that you keep her in your prayers."
Wright's character is expected to take on a larger role in the sequel, after Chadwick Boseman, who played the title character in the first movie, died of cancer last year.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is scheduled for release on November 11, 2022.
The pause in shooting is reportedly not expected to affect the release date of the movie, which is directed by Ryan Coogler.

So what is Spicy Chickenjoy?
Just as McDonald’s has the Big Mac, Jollibee has Spicy Chickenjoy – a piece of fried chicken that’s crispy and spicy on the outside and comes with a side of spaghetti, all covered in tomato sauce and topped with sausage slices and ground beef. It sounds like a recipe that a child would come up with, but perhaps that’s the point – a flavourbomb combination of cheap comfort foods. Chickenjoy is Jollibee’s best-selling product in every country in which it has a presence.
Water waste
In the UAE’s arid climate, small shrubs, bushes and flower beds usually require about six litres of water per square metre, daily. That increases to 12 litres per square metre a day for small trees, and 300 litres for palm trees.
Horticulturists suggest the best time for watering is before 8am or after 6pm, when water won't be dried up by the sun.
A global report published by the Water Resources Institute in August, ranked the UAE 10th out of 164 nations where water supplies are most stretched.
The Emirates is the world’s third largest per capita water consumer after the US and Canada.
