In a recent interview, Viola Davis revealed her surprise at the support Chadwick Boseman received on the set of 'Ma Rainey's Black Bottom', not knowing he was battling terminal colon cancer. Boseman's intimate rituals for comfort were misunderstood by her at the time. After his passing in August 2020, Davis expressed deep sorrow and emphasized the importance of quality over quantity in life. She believes Boseman's legacy will live on through his authenticity and integrity, not just his role in 'Black Panther'.
"Little did I know that they were doing it because he was dying."
"What I hold onto with Chad is that he lived his life his way. I would say his professional life absolutely paralleled his personal life."
