查德威克·博斯曼(Chadwick Boseman)于上周五因癌症去世，享年43岁。他饰演的美国黑人偶像杰基·罗宾逊(Jackie Robinson)和詹姆斯·布朗(James Brown)令他大获人气，而之后其在漫威系列大片中饰演的黑豹(the regal Black Panther) 则令全球观众大开眼界。
Boseman died at his home in the Los Angeles area with his wife and family by his side, his publicist Nicki Fioravante told The Associated Press.
Boseman was diagnosed with colon cancer four years ago, his family said in a statement.
公关尼基·菲奥拉万特告诉美联社，博斯曼在洛杉矶的家中去世，当时妻子和家人陪伴在他身边。
博斯曼的家人在一份声明中说，博斯曼四年前被诊断出结肠癌。
“A true fighter, Chadwick persevered through it all, and brought you many of the films you have come to love so much,” his family said. “From Marshall to Da 5 Bloods, August Wilson’s Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom and several more - all were filmed during and between countless surgeries and chemotherapy. It was the honor of his career to bring King T’Challa to life in Black Panther.”
