‘Black Panther’ actor Danai Gurira took home her spear to deal with a domestic problem: spiders

"When I'm coming up and down some stairs outside my home and there's always a spider web.... This last time I was there a couple of weeks ago, it was a black widow on the stairwell," the actor was quoted as saying

In the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), characters are often seen crossing paths every now and then; it is how the narrative progresses and tension and plot excitement builds.

But, it seems for Danai Gurira, the lines have blurred between real and reel. The actor had a close encounter that seemed oddly-similar to perhaps a Marvel plot, or something that could potentially happen to a character.

Funnily, the ‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever‘ actor recently admitted in an interview that she brought home her Dora Milaje spear prop to deal with a domestic problem: getting rid of a black widow spider.

Gurira, who stars as the spear-wielding Okoye — a formidable military leader of Wakanda’s elite all-female unit ‘Dora Milaje’ — made the revelation during an appearance on ‘The Jonathan Ross Show‘, according to an Insider report.
