Lupita Nyong'o Pays Tribute to Chadwick Boseman on the Anniversary of His Death

Lupita Nyong’o, an accomplished actress who starred alongside the late Chadwick Boseman in the Marvel franchise, Black Panther, posted a tribute to the actor on Instagram. Three years ago Boseman tragically passed away from colon cancer, a medical event that he kept extremely private up until his death. Boseman portrayed T’challa, the Black Panther, and became an icon for his role as the first Black superhero to lead a film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Nyong’o, who played Nakia, a spy and T’challa’s love interest, took to Instagram to honor her friend. She said that the grief and confusion she felt upon learning of Boseman’s passing was “so profound that it took months to trust the feeling of joy again.”
