Black Panther-stjärnan Chadwick Boseman är död

En stjärna slocknade i Hollywood sent igår. Black Panther-stjärnan Chadwick Boseman rapporteras ha dött efter en lång kamp mot tjocktarmscancer - en diagnos som skådespelaren har hållit hemligt de senaste fyra åren. Chadwick blev bara 43 år gammal när han dog i sitt hem, med familjen vid sin sida.

Kevin Feige, storbossen för Marvel Studios, var förkrossad i sitt uttalande:

"Chadwick's passing is absolutely devastating. He was our T'Challa, our Black Panther, and our dear friend. Each time he stepped on set, he radiated charisma and joy, and each time he appeared on screen, he created something truly indelible. He embodied a lot of amazing people in his work, and nobody was better at bringing great men to life. He was as smart and kind and powerful and strong as any person he portrayed. Now he takes his place alongside them as an icon for the ages. The Marvel Studios family deeply mourns his loss, and we are grieving tonight with his family."

Förutom Black Panther var skådespelaren också känd för filmer som Da 5 Bloods, Get on Up och Marshall. Vila i frid, Chadwick Boseman.
