Chadwick Boseman Leaves Behind a Part of Himself
With the conception ofBlack Panther, a legacy was born. For the first time, Marvel saw unity among fans across racial, cultural, and linguistic divides to a point where the only thing that mattered was a celebration of the story and what it represented — the first Black superhero film in history to fetch a billion dollars at the box office, earn 7 Oscar nominations, and win 3. But most importantly,Black Pantherbecame the first superhero feature to earn a Best Picture nomination at the Academy Awards.
This was the power of storytelling that was born from the magical collaboration of Ryan Coogler and a cast of equally talented, wonderfully supportive actors — all led at the helm by Chadwick Boseman.
