Rest In Peace, Mr. Boseman. You surely left your mark.


A terrible loss, my mom died from colon cancer, he must have had symptoms early to be diagnosed at 38.

And this is the Darkest Timeline (watch some Community to break this bleakness)

I can't even imagine. He was so sick all 2019 I doubt they filmed Black Panther 2. He was already in Avengers: Endgame and Avengers: Infinity War.


I'm not sure I even want to see a sequel without Chadwick Boseman. I'm sure they'll try to rewrite it to focus on Shuri and the Dora Milaje. If so, I hope they take a good long time and not try to rush anything through production, even if it takes years after the end of COVID. I want a female-led Black Panther 2 to be EPIC.



If Michael B. Jordan's character hadn't died in such a epic way - they could refocus the second film on him.

From a production standpoint though, the lead actor of Spartacus for two seasons also died of cancer, they recast the role in season 3. I'm sure Disney will make sure the film is as epic as the first, if only so they can take home another multi-billion dollar box office, but I sincerely hope they find a way to permanently honor Chadwick Boseman somehow.


I don't want them to recast T'Challa. Honor his death and let Shuri take the lead. There is precedent for this in the graphic novels.


Maybe. Shuri's 16 in the comics. There hasn't been a Marvel lead so young yet and I'd be worried it would automatically steer the film towards a younger audience - especially under Disney's control.

Fortunately the actress who plays Shuri is 26 -- so she could easily play an older version of 'herself'.


Spiderman is in high school.


Those are still Sony movies.

Truly. He was just being teased for being too skinny.

Get your screenings on time, folks.
What a tragic loss of an immense talent.


Of course, if he was only 38 when diagnosed, the typical screening guideline (age 50) would not have saved him. Colon cancer is striking younger and younger, just awful.


If you are black, have predisposing conditions (diabetes, Crohn's, troublesome digestive system in general), and/or consume a heavily processed Western diet (aka SAD), get screened early and often.

He just turned 43. He was diagnosed at 38. Colonoscopies are not routine screenings until your 50s.


Black people tend to get it a bit earlier, so screenings are now recommended at 45.

45 is the recommended age now, unless you have a family history or other predispositions which will lower the screening age.
