Letitia Wright honors Chadwick Boseman with ‘Wakanda Forever’ premiere look

Chadwick Boseman’s memory lives on with his “Black Panther” co-star.

Letitia Wright walked the purple carpet last night for the paying tribute to the late actor by wearing a crystal-embellished suit that brought back memories of Boseman’s 2018 Oscars outfit.

Wearing a black Alexander McQueen suit trimmed with chunky, clear stones dripping down from the shoulders, the 28-year-old actress looked stunning as she attended the premiere, which was held at Hollywood’s Dolby Theatre.

The slim-fitting trouser suit, which is part of the British fashion house’s spring/summer 2023 pre-collection, looked strikingly similar to the Givenchy outfit Boseman wore to the Academy Awards the year the first Marvel film was released.

“This kinda f—ed me up a little,” one fan tweeted, including a side-by-side comparison of the two “Black Panther” stars with the same wrists-crossed Wakanda Forever salute.

While the late actor — who died of colon cancer in 2020 at the age of 43 —  rocked a long black suit jacket with silver embroidery, Wright’s version featured a sexy cutout back, with the crystals forming a racerback style, crossing the shoulders like a harness.

Wright added glittering diamond hoop earrings, a large cocktail ring and a sparkling bracelet to her look, wearing black shoes with a block heel.

The Marvel star — who was many fans believe Wright takes on the rold of Black Panther herself in the sequel.

In addition to playing his on-screen sister, the actress told Page Six last month that Boseman was like a sibling to her in real life, too.

“Chad will follow me everywhere I go, he’s my brother [and] he will be with me forever,” she said at the premiere of “The Silent Twins.”

And when asked about the new “Black Panther” sequel, she said fans should get ready for a fast-paced ride.

“You can expect a lot in the sequel. It’s jam-packed… it’s a lot of fun, adventure, surprises.”
