Chadwick Boseman passed away at 43 years old on August 28th, 2020. His family confirmed the news in a statement to Associated Press, revealing that Boseman had been quietly battling stage 3 colon cancer for four years prior to his death, saying, "A true fighter, Chadwick persevered through it all, and brought you many of the films you have come to love so much. [...] From Marshall to Da 5 Bloods, August Wilson's Ma Rainey's Black Bottom and several more - all were filmed during and between countless surgeries and chemotherapy." Boseman never spoke publicly about having colon cancer, so fans were understandably shocked by the news of his seemingly sudden death. In their mourning, many fans have turned to the Black Panther star's last words for some sort of comfort. Josh Gad, who co-starred with Boseman in Marshall, was a fan of Boseman even before they appeared together on screen. Recently, Gad revealed one of the late actor's final text messages, and his words are uncannily meaningful.
