Lupita Nyong'o says Chadwick Boseman's 'power lives on'
LOS ANGELES – Lupita Nyong'o has written a stirring tribute to her late “Black Panther" co-star Chadwick Boseman, calling him a man whose power will ”reverberate for generations." She says Boseman “cared so much about humanity, about Black people, about his people” and that "his power lives on and will reverberate for generations to come." Nyongo's words follow similar tributes in recent days from “Black Panther” director Ryan Coogler and co-star Michael B. Jordan. Jordan wrote directly to Boseman, saying, “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.”
