Boseman's Private Battle and Iconic Career
Boseman's death was announced through a post on his official Instagram account in August 2020. His team revealed that he had been diagnosed with stage III colon cancer in 2016, which later progressed to stage IV.
Despite his illness, Boseman continued to work and completed several films during his treatment. His performance as T'Challa made him a global star, while his roles as historical figures such as Jackie Robinson in 42, Thurgood Marshall in Marshall and James Brown in Get On Up also earned him praise.
Boseman received a posthumous Academy Award nomination for Best Actor for his performance in Ma Rainey's Black Bottom at the 93rd Academy Awards. His final Marvel performance came as the voice of T'Challa in the animated series What If...?, which was released after his death. (ANI)
