00:00Chadwick Boseman to be honored with Hollywood Walk of Fame star on November 20th.
00:05The late Chadwick Boseman will receive a Hollywood Walk of Fame star, honoring his career and the
00:10legacy he left behind. Few actors made such an impact. He embodied Jackie Robinson in 42
00:16and James Brown in Get On Up. His most iconic role, King T'Challa in Black Panther, cemented
00:23him as a global symbol of representation and strength. When he declared, Wakanda forever,
00:28it wasn't just a movie line. It became a cultural mantra, resonating across generations.
00:35The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce set the ceremony for November 20th at 11.30am Pacific Time,
00:41open to the public and streamed online. His star joins the motion pictures category on Hollywood
00:46Boulevard. Named to the 2024 class, the unveiling is slated for late 2025, five years after his
00:54passing. As the first black superhero to headline a Marvel Cinematic Universe film, Black Panther
01:00grossed over $1.3 billion, underscoring his cultural influence. He chose roles about resilience,
01:07justice, and identity to uplift audiences. After his August 2020 passing, his private four-year
01:13colon cancer battle deepened admiration. Posthumous stars are rare, underscoring his lasting impact.
01:20Fans will see his name engraved in brass and leave flowers and keepsakes, as in 2020.
01:27Born in Anderson, South Carolina in 1976, he studied directing at Howard University with mentor Felicia
01:33Rashad and attended the Oxford Midsummer program. He wrote and directed before embracing acting,
01:39often turning down roles that didn't align with his values. With Black Panther, he embodied cultural pride
01:45and sparked celebrations of African-inspired aesthetics, giving many children a first superhero who looked like
01:52them, an acknowledgement of change, not just fame. The November 20th ceremony will likely include family,
01:58Marvel colleagues, and industry figures, with speeches, music, video tributes, and reflections on his artistry.
02:05Marvel's Black Panther Wakanda forever honored him, exploring grief, resilience, and legacy,
02:10while his quiet philanthropy, cancer research, arts education, and underprivileged youth cemented a symbol
02:17of purpose-driven artistry. The Walk of Fame represents achievement and perseverance. His star is not just a memorial,
02:25it's a message that authenticity, courage, and purpose endure, destined to shine forever, etched into film history.
