Actor Chadwick Boseman best known for his leading role in the marvel action movie black panther has died after a 4 year battle with cancer he was 43. 00 bozeman played black icons Jackie Robinson james brown and Thurgood Marshall before Winning International acclaim as the character came to chawla in black panther statement on his twitter account says he died at his home in los angeles surrounded by his family. And from los angeles im now joined by a correspondent k. J. Matthews hello to you k j tell us what does the last of Chadwick Boseman mean for the film community. You know its so heart breaking and its a huge loss here in hollywood i think many people are still in shock because they did not know that chadwick when suffering from calling cancer because it says in his latest release from his as a publicist that he actually was diagnosed back in 2016 so that means for the last 4 years hes been going to said and filming movies and even doing saturday night live on television suffering from colon cancer and receiving chemotherapy so he was just its higher it was worker and i think so many people here are just surprised i mean youve got people tweeting like the director ava du vernay you have dinners a washington releasing a statement you have seen john legend josh gad Ryan Reynolds so many people are remembering their time on set with Chadwick Boseman and just how humble he was and how he was such a hard worker it is just so surprising that he died so young in his early fortys well how do you think most men it will be best remembered i mean hes most famous perhaps for a black panther but he does a lot more didnt he. He did you know but unfortunately for the International Audience it really will be for black panther that is what we will remember him for planking to charla thats his massive role you know before that he had done a lot of biopics he was a did a biopic as you guys mentioned earlier about Thurgood Marshall the 1st black u. S. Supreme Court Justice he did a biopic about Jackie Robinson the 1st black person to be allowed to play baseball in Major League Baseball and then he did a biopic about the great legends fingered james brown so hes done really great needy roles but they hadnt really crossed over to an International Audience and he never had that kind of International Success until he took on the role of black panther and thats what hell be best remembered for so will be very interesting to see what they do in the sequel to to honor him. All those and was also not just respected as an actor and he was also a role model can you tell us a bit of found that what kind of a role model was he off screen. You know he was that i think it was a radio interview a couple of years ago around the time that black panther was released and he talked about receiving letters from kids with cancer one to meet him and talking about how it was so exciting to see a black superhero on the screen and he he wrote back and corresponded with them and said it just is this touches heart and now to know that he passed away from from colon cancer its just so fitting and so heartbreaking to see that he also was an activist who up until recently even this month he spoke out in support of black lives matter and also supported bice president ial nominee amala harris here so he was always putting others 1st and always thinking about other people so he will always be remembered as a great actor but a humanitarian as well all right k.
