-I May Destroy You’s Michaela Coel covers Vogue and talks about playing a super warrior in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (“That sold me on the role, the fact that my character’s queer. I thought: I like that, I want to show that to Ghana. People say, ‘Oh, it’s fine, it’s just politics.’ But I don’t think it is just politics when it affects how people get to live their daily lives. That’s why it felt important for me to step in and do that role because I know just by my being Ghanaian, Ghanaians will come”), and her relationship goals (“I do want a life companion. I love romance and I love when romance turns into something deeper, a relationship where there’s understanding, transparency, forgiveness, openness. But you have to find that person, and I personally haven’t seen many healthy men. So I don’t know if I trust myself”).
