Actor Chadwick Boseman who stared in Marvel’s Black Panther & Avengers Infinity War movies died of cancer on Friday, according to his representative. He was only 43 years old.
Boseman died at his home in the Los Angeles area with his wife and family by his side, publicist Nicki Fioravante told The Associated Press.
Chadwick was diagnosed with stage III colon cancer in 2016 and battled with it these last 4 years as it progressed to stage IV.
“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.”
Boseman had kept his diagnosis private.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family.
Wakanda forever!
