Next up, fans are introduced to T'Challa's sister Shuri (Letitia Wright), the princess of Wakanda who will reportedly develop new technology to keep the country safe.

This is evidenced by her being equipped with two awesome-looking gauntlet-like devices which are even sculpted to resemble a panther's face. She stands next to Nakia, probably while the other Dora Milaje are being attacked by Killmonger's men, and readies an assault.

She looks totally bada**, and in a year that's already wowed audiences with Wonder Woman, should satisfyingly bring yet another tough female heroine to the big screen. It'll also be interesting to see whether or not she dons her own Black Panther suit by the end of the movie (probably not, but fans can dream, right?)
