The terrible news was revealed yesterday that Chadwick Boseman (Black Panther) passed away after his four-year intense battle of colon cancer. I wasn’t even aware of his health triubles, so this came as an utter shock. I was completely devastated by the news. Boseman wasn’t only a brilliant and talented actor but a great human being.
It is very impressive to see all the work he comleted in the past four years while battling cancer. That’s just one example that shows us what kind of person that Boseman was.
Boseman’s Marvel family have expressed their love and admiration for Boseman and Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige said:
“Chadwick’s passing is absolutely devastating. He was our T’Challa, our Black Panther, and our dear friend. Each time he stepped on set, he radiated charisma and joy, and each time he appeared on screen, he created something truly indelible. He embodied a lot of amazing people in his work, and nobody was better at bringing great men to life. He was as smart and kind and powerful and strong as any person he portrayed. Now he takes his place alongside them as an icon for the ages. The Marvel Studios family deeply mourns his loss, and we are grieving tonight with his family.”
Boseman certainly left a great impression on the world through his work and his actions. His legacy will live on through his briliant accomplishments.
Our hearts are broken and our thoughts are with Chadwick Boseman’s family. Your legacy will live on forever. Rest In Peace. pic.twitter.com/DyibBLoBxz
