At 93-years of age, it’s hard to believe that actress
Dorothy Steel made her big-screen debut in the blockbuster film “Black Panther” when she was 91. In the Marvel production, Steel plays a tribe leader in the fictional African land of Wakanda.
“It was just amazing, it truly was,” Steel told an Atlanta television station when the movie was released in 2018. “If anyone would have told me I would be an actor, I would’ve said you got to be out of your mind.”
In the film, her role advised the King of Wakanda, played by lead actor Chadwick Boseman.
