The actor who portrayed the Black Panther has died from colon cancer.

Way too young to die. Very sad.

I’m so sad today. He was a great actor and seemed like a good guy. As a lifelong Marvel fan, I loved him as Black Panther, but saw him in 21 Bridges and thought he was great there too. His Jackie Robinson and James Brown movies are n my To Watch list.

@cookieman I haven’t seen “Black Panther” but have seen the other two and he was great in them.

@janbb: Watch Captain America: Civil War first (where he and Wakanda are introduced), then watch Black Panther. They are very good.

I gotta watch his other films now.

To @filmfann’s other question, I can only guess what Marvel will do now. Black Panther 2 was announced, but doesn’t have a firm release date and hasn’t even started filming. They have lots of time to figure it out and do something that makes sense in-story and is respectful to Chadwick.

If you are sad about Chadwick Boseman’s senseless death at such a young age and I am, honor his memory by getting a colonoscopy, which I did on Thursday. Now matter what horror stories you have heard about the prep, it is much less onerous and much less painful than colon cancer.

@marinelife, excellent advice. And the prep isn’t nearly as bad as it used to be.

I had to Cologuard test this winter which is a little gross but not too bad.

He died, way too young.
Life is way too sad.
I hope that he journeys well…

I was so sad to hear about his death. I thought he did an excellent job in Black Panther and I was looking forward to seeing him do more movies. Such a loss. There are few young actors that I actually like their acting. He was one of the few.
