He had stage three cancer and he still managed to give one of the best superhero performances in the last decade.

I'd read something months ago about concerns over sightings of him having had a concerning amount of weight loss. Speculation was that he had an eating disorder or something. Now, the truth is, sadly, clear.

Black Panther was a great and tremendously significant film on several levels.

Rest in peace, Chadwick.

Sad news. His portrayal of Black Panther was tremendous. From what I have read some of his other work may even be considered better. Definitely a loss.

So young for cancer! All that lost potential is tragic, but what a legacy he left with Black Panther.
