Mabel Cadena's performance in Black Panther 2: Wakanda Forever was so exhilarating that she made us feel the pain of the blue-bodied underwater occupants. Her performance has now heralded a new era of roles for the actress in a way she never expected.
The Mexican actress is already a force in her home country with two Ariel Award nominations and several blockbuster Mexican movies under her belt. The Marvel Cinematic Universe launched her mainstream career, and Cadena couldn't be more grateful.
