During an interview, she revealed for the first time that she shot a scene with the young actor Divine Love Konadu-Sun, who plays a character revealed to be the son of T’Challa (the late Chadwick Boseman) and Nakia (Lupita Nyong’o), which was cut from the movie.

“I filmed a scene,” she told Variety.

“I did, but you know — cutting room, readjusting and reshaping it. What does Ramonda say? Oh, ‘Shuri, there’s something that I need to tell you.’”

She recalled parts of the scene, adding: “I went to Haiti, of course. I met him, I was introduced to him… but it wound up on the cutting room floor.”

As for the reason why it got cut, she said it was “to make it a surprise for the audience and to Shuri. It was the right way to go. Perfect to go about it.”

She revealed that Nakia introduces Ramonda to Toussaint as his “Nanna.”

She also got candid about learning about Ramonda’s death when reading the script for the first time.

“I was not happy about that,” she admitted.

“I was not pleased. I was so shocked. I was… just mortified. You know, it’s like they gave you the greatest gift, and they snatched it away. Part of me was like, ‘Okay, don’t say anything, be strong.’ Then the other part of me was like… ‘I just got to let him know. That I don’t like this at all — and why? — and don’t do this.’ The love for Ramonda was so real and heartfelt, but you know — they always kill the heart and soul.”

There is a huge debate on social media about whether something else more adult got edited out of the movie.
