It was only a matter of time before someone libs really championed was revealed to be un-vaxed and that moment is now.
Production on “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever” has been halted due to the vaccination status of Letitia Wright, who will take on the Black Panther mantel in the sequel due to the death of Chadwick Boseman”:

From Comic Book Resources:
The Black Panther sequel recently halted production to allow Wright time to recover from an injury she sustained while shooting a stunt, with Wright heading home to London. Problem is, as The Hollywood Reporter noted, the CDC implemented a new rule on Nov. 8, requiring all non-immigrant, non-citizens flying to the U.S. be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and give proof of their vaccination status before they board a plane to the country. Given that Wright is neither vaccinated nor a U.S. citizen, this will presumably complicate her return to shooting the film stateside.
And now libs are calling on Disney to recast one of its most popular female Black characters:
Shut it down and re-cast it. Enough of this nonsense. Also, Shuri is a BRILLIANT SCIENTIST being played by an unrepentant anti-vaxxer who believes in nutty conspiracies. Ridiculous. https://t.co/jzVsrNGNX5

LOL:
Disappointed with Wright
If Wakanda faced a pandemic, Shuri would have designed a vaccine https://t.co/RfRSnervbC

People are so, so mad at her:
Much of this could have been avoided if T'Challa had been re-cast and you weren't basing a billion dollar franchise on an antivaxxer who shares conspiracy videos https://t.co/UF11k45nkS

Cancel everything!
Just cancel the sequel already and reboot in a few years. 🙄 https://t.co/4HPJRJ664x

And this is quite the take:
Imagine the kind of threat that she would have posed to Chadwick Boseman if he were still alive. What an insult to his memory. https://t.co/hKqeZM6iCD

Over to you, Disney:
Lol just fire her https://t.co/o7hTMqbUWG

There is also a report out there that Wright has COVID-19 right now and Disney is lying about it all:
Look, I've been told Wright has COVID, but Disney are trying to protect her by saying she suffered an injury. Take it for what it's worth, but that's what's really going on behind the scenes.
Wright has COVID. Disney are lying for her because of her relationship with Coogler https://t.co/zKI81PsFeo

There is another option for Disney: “Just finish the movie”:
Why? Just film the thing. Disney is being ridiculous about this whole thing. Just finish the movie. If they fire her, I hope she sues them. https://t.co/5S1tf6aThu
