He was 43, and made all those great films in between bouts of surgery and chemotherapy following his colon cancer diagnosis in 2016.

Edited to add that many here will also know him as James Brown in Get On Up.

Very sad - saw him in Get On Up back when it was released.

RIP Chadwick Boseman

Fantastic actor, great roles, gone way too soon. Rest In Peace Chadwick

Involuntarily an instant legend.

So sad news. RIP Chadwick. He was excellent in James Brown movie. Remember him also doing interviews for the movie with Mick.

43 ... so young.

I'm heartbroken over this. So young. What a superb and actor and, judging from the statements made by those who knew him, a great person. RIP Chadwick.

From Mick:

It’s so sad to hear of @chadwickboseman’s passing, he was a wonderful, funny, kind man and a very talented actor, he will be missed by so many.

RIP Chadwick.

This is beyond SAD...Chadwick had such a unique talent for actually becoming the character he played on screen...Jackie Robinson, James Brown...a brilliant actor who will be remembered for the man he was off-screen as well as on, according to those who knew him...like Mick. RIP Chadwick...gone way too soon.

That is so very sad.

Been seeing a lot of news on his passing on BBC here in U.K.

A great actor who I only saw once in a film and that was the one about James Brown where he was so, so good in it.

He comes over as a really nice guy in the tributes paid to him.

R.I.P. Chadwick
