Lupita Nyong’o on Tuesday mourned Black Panther star Chadwick Boseman in a moving tribute saying she is still trying to come to terms with his demise. Lupita shared a photo of her and Boseman in a public post on Instagram since the death of the actor on August, 28, 2020. Describing him as a man with immortal energy, the Marvel actress said that Boseman was one of those people who seemed ageless.

"I write these words from a place of hopelessness, to honor a man who had great hope. I am struggling to think and speak about my friend, Chadwick Boseman, in the past tense. It doesn't make sense. The news of his passing is a punch to my gut every morning.
