Black Panther opened in theaters in 2018 and earned $1.348 billion at the worldwide box office. Two years after the release of Black Panther and T’Challa’s other Marvel Cinematic Universe appearances, Chadwick Boseman, the actor behind the fan-favorite character, passed away at the age of 43, following a four-year battle with colon cancer. Marvel made the decision not to recast T’Challa for the sequel, with a new character taking on the Black Panther mantle.
