Actor Letitia Wright has shared a beautiful video as tribute to her late Black Panther co-star, Chadwick Boseman. The video, which is edited by Letitia herself, shows scenes from nature, playing to her emotional, poetic words about Chadwick.
“A soul so beautiful, when you walked into a room, there was calm. You always moved with grace and ease,” she said in the video. “Every time I saw you, the world would be a better place,” she added. Letitia played Chadwick’s younger sister, Princess Shuri in Black Panther.
Letitia said that she even sent messages to Chadwick a few times but when he didn’t respond, she thought he was just busy. “Words cant describe how I feel, how we all fee, that losing you is forced upon us. To accept this as a new reality, I wish I got to say goodbye. Messaged you a couple times, I thought you were just busy. I didn’t know you were dealing with so much,” she said. Chadwick died on Friday after a four-year battle with colon cancer. He had not told any of his co-stars or fans about his health condition.
