Rest In Power: Chadwick Boseman

Wakanda Forever


It is with great sadness that we report that actor Chadwick Boseman (21 Bridges, Black Panther) passed away at 43 years old, ending a 4 year battle with colon cancer. Although he is known for bring king T’Challa to the big screen via the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Boseman also bought various black historical figures to the big screen. Among these figures were baseball player Jackie Robinson (42), singer James Brown (Get On Up), and Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall (Marshall). His most recent effort, Da 5 Bloods is currently streaming on Netflix, and he was gearing up to play Yasuke, a black samurai in 16th century Japan. His final film, Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom will be released on Netflix later this year. Based on the play by August Wilson, the film stars Viola Davis as legendary blues singer Ma Rainey, with Boseman playing as her trumpeter Levee. As you can see, every time he appeared on the screen, Boseman portrayed Black excellence. What makes this real wild is that Boseman had been shooting these roles in between bouts of surgery and chemotherapy. Without a doubt he will be missed, both as an actor, and as a human being. There was never a man like Chadwick, and there will never be one again.

Square-Enix and Marvel Team Up for The Avengers Project.


Yesterday, both Square-Enix and Marvel Entertainment hinted that they would both have big announcements to make. Many people wondered that since both announcements were happening on the same day and at the same time, they would be related to each other, like say, Marvel Characters appearing in Kingdom Hearts 3. Well, this morning the two companies did have an announcement. While it was not quite The Avengers teaming up with Sora (although we probably shouldn’t rule that out), what we do have is just as awesome. Marvel is teaming up with Square-Enix and Developers Crystal Dynamics (Tomb Raider) and Eidos Montreal (Deux Ex) for The Avengers Project, a series of games which will supposedly introduce a new Marvel Universe in gaming. Obviously little has been revealed about the first game and its gameplay, and it will be a while before we learn any more, as according to Square, we’ll hear more details in 2018.

Looks like Marvel really is getting serious about its console gaming presence again, and a colloboration with Square-Enix has the potential to be huge. While the long wait is a drag, we’ll have Telltale’s Guardians of teh Galaxy Game, Marvel vs Capcom Infinite, and Insomniac’s PS4 Spider-man title (assume it comes out this year) to tide us over until then.
