Since then, she&#8217;s continued to appear in other major films, including <em>Us<\/em>, <em>Black Panther<\/em> and the most recent <em>Star Wars<\/em> saga. She&#8217;s also set to star in and produce an adaptation of <strong>Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie<\/strong>&#8216;s <em>Americanah<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>While her schedule may seem jam-packed, Nyong&#8217;o has given herself &#8220;permission to take things slow&#8221; and work on projects that truly leave an impression.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t get&nbsp;fulfillment from the number of zeros attached to a project,&#8221; she told the publication. &#8220;What I&#8217;m seduced by is the potential to shift a narrative.
