Jesus this is gutting, he came across as a really nice guy and he was a really good actor, and cemented his legacy in one of the best Marvel movies of the series in Black Panther.


Cancer is such an awful thing I can't imagine a 4 year battle but he faced it with what seems like strength and dignity.


I agree with everyone, make sure you keep up with your checks, avoid Cancer or catch it early.


RIP.

Far too young. I’m glad he brought my favorite hero to life.

May he join the Hall of Kings.

43??

I'd have guessed he was at least 10 years younger than that.

Wow.

Its a real shame, he was a great actor.

I just saw this news, so sad.

Cancer is so cruel. It just goes to show you that you can be in the prime of your life and in excellent physical condition, but it can get you.

I was hopeful that because of his age, he might be able to pull through.

Wow, so sad. I wonder how many people knew, because he looked healthy in any movie he was in. One of the most shocking revelations in the past few years. Definitely seemed like a genuine person. Wow.

There were some rumours that he was battling something, but I don't think too many people knew how bad it was.

I'm really glad he was able to make his mark before passing, but it's terribly sad that we won't see more.

Yeah. I guess some celebrities have a knack for keeping their privacy outside scree time but with this one he didn’t have any on screen indicators, even in hindsight, that he was sick for so long. He seemed like an up and comer. Really sudden and so young.

43 and battling colon cancer for 4 years? Just terrible. Book your colonoscopy's folks.
Unfortunately, they generally don't allow you to get a colonoscopy until age 50 because above 50 is the target group. It is tragic and sad that he got it so young as it rarely hits people his age.

Default Chadwick Boseman died

This week has been particularly bad, the news, the virus everything. I was so shocked to hear this news last night. I cried a lot.

The strength it took to continue working as hard as he did while fighting that disease! Extraordinary.

RIP. Wakanda Forever!
