Chadwick Boseman’s untimely death yesterday has people all over Hollywood talking. And one interview that he did in 2019, when the actor was fighting colon cancer, keeps popping up to the editors at MTO News.
During his promotion of the latest Avengers Film Endgame, the actor told an interviewer that he’s “dead.”
In the video, which you can see below, the interviewer kept trying to get Chadwick to discuss the film, and reveal any spoilers. But Chadwick refused to answer the questions and just kept saying “I’m Dead.”
On one hand, Chadwick was saying this, because his character Black Panther had died in the previous Avengers film. And he had not yet been re-incarnated – as he was in Avengers Endgame.
So at the moment of the interview, the character was “dead.”
But take a look at Chadwick’s eyes when he utters the words “I’m dead.” It’s clear that the words triggered some deep emotion in him. You can see a clear change in his demeanor, from playfulness to sadness.
MTO News would like to offer our condolences to all his family and friends. 2020 took another great one.
