Chadwick Boseman, the star of the ground-breaking superhero movie "Black Panther," has died from colon cancer, his publicist told AFP Friday.
Boseman, who was 43, had not publicly discussed his condition — which was first diagnosed in 2016 — and continued to work on major Hollywood films.
"It was the honor of his career to bring King T'Challa to life in Black Panther," said a statement posted to Boseman's social media accounts. "He died in his home, with his wife and family by his side."
