He rose to fame with powerful roles like Jackie Robinson in 42, James Brown in Get On Up and Wakanda's King T'Challa. Five years on from his death, Black Panther star Chadwick Boseman has been honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Viola Davis says his legacy continues to shine. It's best to use all of life, leave death nothing but the dregs, nothing but a burnt out castle. And Chadwick was a castle. Chadwick was a mighty, mighty elixir that sort of stirred up that alchemy that we're all in search of, which is meaning. I celebrate him today. And I say to him, I hope all the angels in heaven just sang him to a beautiful rest. And I thank him for what he left behind in me, which is a burning amber that always guides me to a higher meaning of my work and my purpose. Chadwick now holds the 2,828th star unveiled on the Walk of Fame. His widow, Simone Lenwood Boseman says his talent changed Hollywood forever. It never ceases to amaze me the global impact that Chad's work had. There was a woman here today that flew from Malawi to be here. I get DMs and messages from people all across the globe, all across the continent. It really warms my heart. I don't even know how to describe the feeling, really, but I am... He touched people, you know, and not just on a surface level. And that is something incredibly powerful to do, especially at the magnitude that he was able to do it. Boseman passed away in 2020 at the age of 43 after a private battle with colon cancer.
