Surprised not to see a thread on this. Sad news. I thought he was a good actor. Particularly impressed with his turn in Get On Up.

RIP Chadwick Boseman
Died of cancer at 43, apparently had it all the way through Black Panther, Infinity War, etc and just kept it quiet. No age that.www.readytogo.net
Ah right, apologies. I’ve just seen the news and thought it was breaking so didn’t look beyond the first couple of pages.

Me neitherHonestly never heard of the guy
Seems to be, I saw black panther but don’t think I’ve seen him in anything else or would even know the lads name....and let’s be honest unless sailor joe starts a death thread it doesn’t really countMe neither
Big fuss cause he is a black guy
I'd say the big fuss is that the guy had been fighting cancer for 4 years, making films so he could leave money for the family and then succumbing to the disease way before his time (in private) hence being a shock to folks.Me neither

Yes, your ignorance of his existence obviously means it’s a big deal just because he’s a black guy.Me neither

Also did a lot of charity work whilst suffering too.I'd say the big fuss is that the guy had been fighting cancer for 4 years, making films so he could leave money for the family and then succumbing to the disease way before his time (in private) hence being a shock to folks.
He seemed like a really good man all round bless himAlso did a lot of charity work whilst suffering too.
And as other posters have pointed out, whilst spectacularly missing the point, yes a lot of the attention is because he was black, but that's because he played a Black Superhero, and gave kids that look like him representation in the films they love.
Excellent actor ( check out 42, a very good sports film, a rarity in itself) from humble background Who worked through a horrendous Disease with dignity and determination rather than make capital from it, played an iconic character in a fairly radical superhero film becoming an inspirational figure to a generation of disenfranchised kids and not a bad word said of him by anyone that knew him. Aye the fuss is obviously because of the colour of his skin. I despair sometimes.Me neither

As an established actor from ordinary background playing superhero. There aren’t a huge number of BAME superheroes so one being represented in a huge film franchise is quite significant.As a superhero? Some might say that is setting the bar a little too high for disenfranchised kids?
