《黑豹》、《誓血五人組》導演、演員發文悼念Chadwick Boseman！！

《黑豹》(Black Panther)男星Chadwick Boseman於8月28日因病逝世，震驚全球。《黑豹》在2018年上映，獲得極好的評價，更成為首部獲得奧斯卡最佳電影的超級英雄電影。而且，電影的票房高達十三億美元，是影史票房榜的第九位，因此這電影完全改變荷里活生態，十分有時代意義，而Chadwick Boseman正是這電影的象徵人物。在美國黑人心目中，Chadwick Boseman或許不只是一個知名演員，而是他們在電影、藝術，甚至是黑人民權運動裡的一個代表人物，他代表著非裔美國人的文化、力量和榮耀。

雖然Chadwick Boseman只是在戲裡飾演超級英雄，但根據近日外國傳媒所披露的細節，他在現實生活中也像一個鬥士般，在與癌症搏鬥的同時，仍以堅定的意志完成多部電影，包括有不少動作場面的《黑豹》，以及在酷熱天氣下的雨林拍攝的《誓血五人組》(Da 5 Bloods)。The Hollywood Reporter今日的報導更引述消息指出，Chadwick Boseman在逝世前一星期仍確信他能戰勝病魔，更計劃於9月為《黑豹2》作出前期預備。報導亦指出，只有極少數人知道Chadwick Boseman患病，《黑豹》的所有演員、製作團隊也不知情，Marvel主席Kevin Feige也是在Chadwick Boseman逝世當日才知道他患病。

在Chadwick Boseman離世後，一眾影視、公眾人物分別在社交媒體悼念他，包括《黑豹》導演和演員：

《黑豹》導演Ryan Coogler在文中談及自己首次看到Chadwick Boseman飾演黑豹的片段，以及二人在《黑豹》電影製作過程點滴。他透露，Chadwick Boseman參與了《黑豹》的不少創作過程，包括奸角Killmonger（Michael B. Jordan飾）非常動人的最後一幕。他指出，他在過去一年一直在創作《黑豹》續集劇本，構想Chadwick Boseman的對白，但我們永遠也未能聽見他親身演繹。

I’ve been trying to find the words, but nothing comes close to how I feel. I’ve been reflecting on every moment, every conversation, every laugh, every disagreement, every hug…everything. I wish we had more time. One of the last times we spoke, you said we were forever linked , and now the truth of that means more to me than ever. Since nearly the beginning of my career, starting with All My Children when I was 16 years old you paved the way for me. You showed me how to be better, honor purpose, and create legacy. And whether you’ve known it or not…I’ve been watching, learning and constantly motivated by your greatness. I wish we had more time. Everything you’ve given the world … the legends and heroes that you’ve shown us we are … will live on forever. But the thing that hurts the most is that I now understand how much of a legend and hero YOU are. Through it all, you never lost sight of what you loved most. You cared about your family , your friends, your craft, your spirit. You cared about the kids, the community, our culture and humanity. You cared about me. You are my big brother, but I never fully got a chance to tell you, or to truly give you your flowers while you were here. I wish we had more time. I'm more aware now than ever that time is short with people we love and admire. I’m gonna miss your honesty, your generosity, your sense of humor, and incredible gifts. I’ll miss the gift of sharing space with you in scenes. I’m dedicating the rest of my days to live the way you did. With grace, courage, and no regrets. “Is this your king!?” Yes . he . is! Rest In Power Brother.

How do you honor a king? Reeling from the loss of my colleague, my friend, my brother. Struggling for words. Nothing feels adequate. I always marveled at how special Chadwick was. Such a pure hearted, profoundly generous, regal, fun guy. My entire job as Okoye was to respect and protect a king. Honor his leadership. Chadwick made that job profoundly easy. He was the epitome of kindness, elegance, diligence and grace. On many an occasion I would think how thankful I was that he was the leading man I was working closely with. A true class act. And so perfectly equipped to take on the responsibility of leading the franchise that changed everything for Black representation. He made everyone feel loved, heard and seen. He played great, iconic roles because he possessed inside of himself that connection to greatness to be able to so richly bring them to life. He had a heroic spirit, and marched to the beat of his own drum; hence his excellence as an artist and the incredible courage and determination as he faced life’s challenges; while still guiding us all. He was zen and sweet and funny (with the very best laugh), attentive, and truly, truly, good. I can’t even wrap my mind around this loss. A loss resonating in my own heart as well as around the globe. The children he inspired, my heart aches for them, to lose their hero just as they finally found him. I am so thankful to have taken the Black Panther journey with him. To have known him, spent time in his light and leadership and to call him forever a friend. Lala Ngoxolo Kumkani.

How do I start to honor a man who I saw as a giant in many ways; with whom I thought I had so much more time...I am absolutely devastated by the loss of my friend and hero, Chadwick Boseman... I feel sick ... I’m in pain and I can’t belive he’s gone. Chadwick was a lightning rod for me... he gave me direction... when I saw “42”, I said, I could be like THIS guy. I knew I belonged because I could see myself in you... that’s what heroes do... they seem familiar because they make it possible for us to see our potential best selves demonstrated through them... Through seeing Chad’s work, I was able to say, “I could be just like you one day“ and when I saw you in person for the first time... at my audition for Black Panther, you acknowledged me and my dream by saying, “he’s ready”! Man, your words that day made me feel like my dream was finally real! Chadwick then proceeded to show us collectively everyday on set what it was to be a leading man. Not only through his work but by how he welcomed and created a space for all of us to feel safe, open and bold ... You even worked with me 1 on 1, on our scenes, so that we could get it right, well before the day of the filming ....Chadwick, Thank you! Chadwick, you are the best...you are me and I’m you and we are all one! Thanks for being someone I could look up to on and off screen ... your calm confidence was inspiring and exemplary. Thanks for sharing with me... you go ahead ...you did your job and did it well! You will NEVER be forgotten. Your heroism is now legend. We’ll carry the load and honor your legacy, the rest of the way! Bless King! #chadwickboseman #wakandaforever

“It was meant to be for Chadwick and me to be connected, for us to be family. But what many don’t know is our story began long before his historic turn as Black Panther. During the premiere party for Black Panther, Chadwick reminded me of something. He whispered that when I received my honorary degree from Howard University, his alma mater, he was the student assigned to escort me that day. And here we were, years later as friends and colleagues, enjoying the most glorious night ever! We’d spent weeks prepping, working, sitting next to each other every morning in makeup chairs, preparing for the day together as mother and son. I am honored that we enjoyed that full circle experience. This young man’s dedication was awe-inspiring, his smile contagious, his talent unreal. So I pay tribute to a beautiful spirit, a consummate artist, a soulful brother...”thou aren’t not dead but flown afar...”. All you possessed, Chadwick, you freely gave. Rest now, sweet prince.” #WakandaForever

在戲中飾演黑豹母親Ramonda的Angela Bassett在發放中談及二人的淵源，原來當年在侯活大學(Howard University)領取她的榮譽學位時，獲派引領她上台的學生正是Chadwick Boseman；而十多年後他們就因《黑豹》而再次相遇，更飾演母子。

而Marvel亦發放了以上影片，追思他們永遠的「國王」。

今年五月，Netflix推出了Spike Lee執導的新作《誓血五人組》，而這電影亦成為Chadwick Boseman生前推出的最後一部演出作品。在戲中，他飾演一個在越戰死去的美軍，而他的下屬在數十年後終於回到越南尋回他的屍體，正式與他告別。現在Chadwick Boseman在現實中死去，這電影看起來別具意義。電影的導演Spike Lee和主演亦在社交網絡懷念這位故友：

E!報導，《誓血五人組》導演Spike Lee表示該電影在嚴熱的泰國雨林、高山上拍攝，Chadwick Boseman一直與他們在那裡，他們從來沒有懷疑他身體有什麼異樣，沒有人知道他當時正在接受治療。他形容Chadwick Boseman為一個士兵，指他從來沒有抱怨，他每一個時刻都在那裡，而他的演出正正印證了他為那角色及每一個角色的努力。

而電影的主角Clarke Peters在接受訪問時亦指出Chadwick Boseman為有色人種提供了無限的機會和可能性，他的離世仿佛是完成了他的使命。他同時亦指出，他在拍攝期間看到Chadwick Boseman被身邊很多人照顧，有人為他按摩，而他女友亦在他身旁，看起來像寶貝似的受珍寵。他現在非常後悔當時有這種想法，因為他終於知道Chadwick Boseman當時身患重病，真的需要受到照顧。
