I\u2019m not sure that I have anything left to add to that conversation. Sorry.\u201d Anderson will next appear on screens in Disney\u2019s Tron: Ares, and she emphasized her focus on new roles and challenges.<\/p>\n Coogler\u2019s recent projects include the hit movies Sinners and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Deadwyler, known for Till and The Harder They Fall, will next appear as Zelma Redding in Otis & Zelma.
