It’s impossible to have any sort of discussion about Netflix’s new film “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom” without acknowledging the untimely death of Hollywood superstar Chadwick Boseman, whose turn as “Levee” will be his final credit.
Boseman, of course, is most well known for his role as the Black Panther in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and although it seemed to be a role he was born to play, the franchise’s immense popularity often overshadowed some of his other, more gripping performances, making it easy to forget just how capable of an actor Boseman was.
