Boseman rose to blockbuster fame with his roles in 42 and Get on Up. Last year, he starred in the action movie 21 Bridges, and this year he had a memorable role in Spike Lee's Da 5 Bloods.
In the Marvel movies, Boseman's portrayal of T'Challa drew wide praise. The character debuted in Captain America: Civil War in 2016, and the solo Black Panther movie in 2018 was a box office smash and cultural phenomenon, becoming the highest-grossing solo superhero movie of all time. Boseman reprised the role in the two most recent Avengers movies.
Boseman's MCU co-stars are among many to pay their respects to the actor:
