Trevor Noah featured in the original film as Griot, the artificial intelligence system created by Shuri (played by Letitia Wright) that guides Everett Ross (played by Martin Freeman) as he pilots a Wakanda fighter jet.
Speaking to Jimmy Fallon in a recent sit down, the comedian would not confirm whether he will make a return for the sequel.
“I'm the voice of Griot, it's like African Siri. I hate spoilers, so I wouldn't spoil it even for my friends. I don't watch trailers, for example. I like getting into the movie not knowing what's coming.”
