Chadwick Boseman's Family Reacts to Posthumous Emmys Nomination
As audiences continue to feel the star's absence, Chadwick Boseman's family is sharing their reaction to the star's posthumous Emmy nomination for What If....?. Boseman made his Marvel Cinematic Universe debut in Captain America: Civil War as T'Challa, the heir to the kingdom of Wakanda who is thrust into leadership following his father's death in the film. Boseman would carry on the role into Black Panther as well as Avengers: Infinity War and Endgame, all of which scored him critical acclaim for his performance as the Marvel hero.
Boseman would make his final live-action appearance as T'Challa in Avengers: Endgame before dying of colon cancer in mid-2020, putting development on Black Panther: Wakanda Forever in turnaround as Marvel and writer/director Ryan Coogler determining a new path for the character without recasting or using body doubles. Prior to his passing, Boseman completed work on Disney+'s What If...? animated series, which explored alternate realities from the MCU and saw T'Challa become Star-Lord instead of Peter Quill. What If...? scored generally positive reviews from critics and audiences alike for its creative storylines and the vocal performances of its ensemble cast, with one star getting major recognition for his work.
