Two years ago today, the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Hollywood for that matter changed forever after the shocking and untimely death of Chadwick Boseman. The Black Panther actor was silently battling colon cancer, an illness he was apparently diagnosed with back in 2016. The multi-awarded actor's death stunned the entire world and it's hard to believe that it's already the 2nd anniversary of his passing.
On social media, Chadwick received a fitting tribute from his colleagues and fans who are still mourning the loss of a great actor and human being. His Black Panther co-stars Letitia Wright, Lupita Nyong'o, and Winston Duke all took to Instagram to remember their good friend. Lupita says Boseman "kept it real" and "kept it kind" while Winston described him as an "incredibly generous man".
Wright posted a heartfelt tribute to her on-screen brother, saying that she misses making him laugh and how she tried to make him smile whenever they saw each other.
On Twitter, fans turned emotional as they remember the T'Challa actor and the legacy he left behind. Check out some of the tribute posts below:
