Chadwick Boseman’s death at age 42 shocked fans worldwide. He had privately battled colon cancer for four years before his passing, a fact that only became public after his death. The actor was best known for his portrayal of Black Panther in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and for his roles in *42* and *Get on Up*.
