Star of Black Panther btw

US actor Chadwick Boseman, best known for his role in Black Panther, has died of cancer, his family say.

The 43-year-old died at home in Los Angeles with his wife and family by his side.

Boseman had not spoken publicly about his diagnosis.

"A true fighter, Chadwick persevered through it all, and brought you many of the films you have come to love so much," his family said in the statement.

"From Marshall to Da 5 Bloods, August Wilson's Ma Rainey's Black Bottom and several more- all were filmed during and between countless surgeries and chemotherapy. It was the honor of his career to bring King T'Challa to life in Black Panther."

Wonder if they had finished filming BP2 yet?

Curious if Marvel will recast the role? Marvel had pretty big plans involving him into other stories in the MCU.

RIP, that throws a real wrench into Marvel's plans, big time.

He posted a vid back in April regarding a donation of PPE in the name of Jackie Robinson by Thomas Tull and Figs, and back in April, Boseman was already extremely thin and frail looking, so i can't imagine him doing any filming before Hollywood shutdown due to covid, unless they did it last year
