Really liked him in his movie roles, 2020 is crazy, the weight loss from a few months ago makes a little more sense now. Didn’t think it was cancer though which sucks.

 

RIP

That was a man who did not want to squander his time left on Earth.

Quite a film legacy in such a short amount of time and did much to further black actors as leading roles in film.

There were a couple of pics of him at events not too far back on the internet and people had commented that he looked very thin/unwell. So sad. Shit this sucks. RIP!

In the time since he was diagnosed with Stage III colon cancer in 2016, he played T'Challa 4 times, played another Civil Rights icon in Thurgood Marshall, and completed 3 other movies. That was a man who did not want to squander his time left on Earth. What a talent. 

Played Jackie Robinson before that too. 

He made the most of it. RIP
