The untimely death of Black Panther star Chadwick Boseman left most people stunned when they learned the actor had passed away from colon cancer on August 28, 2020. Boseman passed away earlier this year after a private 4-year battle with colon cancer.Today would have been his 44th Birthday. Rest In Power King.
To celebrate Marvel Studios “flipbook” intro to Black Panther on Disney+ has been changed to honor and pay tribute to the late actor. The new sequence replaces the usual collage of MCU imagery with concept art of Boseman as T’Challa, before featuring some footage of the Wakandan warrior from his appearances in Black Panther, Captain America: Civil War, and Avengers: Endgame.
Disney Chairman Bob Iger told fans to watch Black Panther on Disney+ for a “special tribute to someone that was and will always be near and dear to our hearts.”
To all fans of #BlackPanther: watch the film on #DisneyPlus late tonight, for a special tribute to someone that was and will always be near and dear to our hearts.
