Black Panther Director Ryan Coogler Opens Up About Grieving Chadwick Boseman
✖
Black Panther fans around the world after the actor’s tragic death last year. Coogler talked to The Hollywood Reporter about his career and his work with Boseman. It’s not hard to imagine how lonely the process to bring
Black Panther II to life is without the series’ star. The actor was the first foundational piece on the way to making the wildly popular Marvel franchise. It was a worldwide phenomenon, but more importantly, Boseman was a friend and colleague to everyone who worked on the film. Sadly, that loss isn’t going away any time soon as there’s still a large task in front of the cast. For the director, he can still clearly hear that voice and that laugh when he closes his eyes. And that’s just staggering to hear as a fan of the first film.
