00:00We are the cast of Black Panther Wakanda Forever.
00:07Welcome to our Ebony Cover.
00:30To be shooting this cover with Ebony at Comic-Con feels like living the dream.
00:43It feels like all the beautiful, momentous things that you would hope for at a time like this.
00:48It's really cool to be back at Comic-Con shooting with Ebony.
00:53I'm just very grateful to be here.
00:56The energy in this space is singular.
00:59Anytime we link up with Ebony is history.
01:03So it feels right, it feels perfect.
01:06It feels like the perfect outlet for this movie.
01:10And it feels like something for us, by us.
01:14I am proud of the fact that we made this film in a time when it was very difficult to make films.
01:20And I am proud of the expansion of Wakanda.
01:25What I'm most excited about for fans to discover about the evolution of Shuri.
01:30She's taken on just a new level of confidence and a new level of integrity.
01:37A new level of sacrifice that we've never seen from her before.
01:40So I'm really excited for fans to see this shift in her becoming this woman right before our eyes.
01:48It's extremely important for women to not just be at the table but to lead the table.
01:52Because actually what I believe the world is often lacking is feminine leadership.
01:57And it often shuns it but it needs it the most, ironically.
02:01And I think what women bring to the table in terms of the holistic ways that we see the world.
02:06And connect to various components of humanity and to what needs to get done.
02:12There's a whole other realm of how I believe the world could be led if more women were at the forefront of more tables.
