China Anne McClain Talks Anissa's Mentorship of Jennifer on 'Black Lightning'

China Anne McClain gets a big hug from on-screen sister Nafessa Williams at the 2018 SCAD aTVfest on Saturday afternoon (February 3) in Atlanta, Ga.

The two Black Lightning stars took a break from filming their CW show to chat about the impact it’s had so far.

In an earlier interview, China and Nafessa opened up about their sister dynamic on the show.

“I love the fact that Thunder gets her powers first,” China shared in a recent interview with Access Hollywood. “You know, she’s older.”

She continues, “I also love the fact that we focus on that first, because that’s what drives the show…[Thunder] is like Jennifer’s mentor, so her experiencing this first, it will be great to pass along.”

Black Lightning airs Tuesdays on The CW.
