While many Oscars viewers felt blindsided by Chadwick Boseman’s loss in the lead actor category Sunday night to Anthony Hopkins (including Hopkins himself), the late actor’s “Black Panther” co-star and friend Michael B. Jordan is looking on the bright side.
“I was excited for all of the nominees and the wins,” Jordan told The Times in an interview in promotion of his latest film, “Tom Clancy’s Without Remorse.” “It was good to see a lot of my friends be nominated and recognized for their work, including Chadwick. In hindsight, that performance he gave, realizing that it’s one of the last things we’re going to get a chance to see him in is truly special. I’ve said it before, win or lose, when it comes to that, he won.”
