Only after his passing did the reason behind his weight loss come to light. It turned out that it was illness-related, unfortunately. Boseman had been diagnosed with stage III colon cancer back in 2016. Eventually, it progressed to stage IV before 2020 came around. The actor never mentioned his cancer diagnosis in public. Only a handful of non-family members knew he was sick at all. During treatment, which involved several surgeries and chemo, Boseman kept working as usual. None was the wiser. On August 28, 2020, the actor passed away at his home due to complications related to his disease.

We don’t doubt that his name will be remembered. The actor was very passionate about all kinds of important social issues and was sure to speak up about them. Whoever worked with him only had good things to say about Chadwick, and it’s clear that he’d earned the respect and admiration he had from his fans. All we can say is that he will be missed.
