I just heard about this. I am stunned and saddened, as he was way too young in addition to playing one of my favorite MCU characters. RIP

Totally unexpected, I had no idea he was sick. So he had cancer and carried on filming those avengers movies like a pro.

Ack that is so sad.. really before his time.
Incredible that he was able to do that amount of work while undergoing treatments, I had no idea.

While vastly different in terms of the quality of the films it does remind me of Raul Julia, who persevered through filming Street Fighter despite undergoing treatment for cancer (and not only filmed the movie but apparently was a pleasure to work with according to those on set).
Good actors taken before they should have been.

This is really depressing. And a big loss to movies too, he was so charismatic. While I don't think Black Panther was a masterpiece, it was a good movie and he was great in the lead.

He was visiting and cheering up children with cancer while fighting cancer of his own and never revealing it publicly. I'm typically wary of levying praise upon actors for things outside of acting, but Boseman was a genuine hero and not just to the Black community. He's the rare celebrity that is a certifiable role model.

I just saw him in Da 5 Bloods, and he was electric in that performance. I can't believe he was probably sick with Cancer while filming that with Spike Lee.
Shocked and saddened by the news.

Diana Rigg was a very strong woman in her own right, she didn't just play one.
When early in her time on the avengers she found out she was being paid less than the cameramen, she damn well demanded star pay and got a real raise. She was demonized in the english press, naturally, but persisted.
She was also against excesses in the feminist movement and got flak from that side too, but she was strong enough to endure being fired on from both sides and had the last laugh.
