    Rest In Peace, the amount of respect I have for him for fighting for 4 years and not making a spectacle or fishing for sympathy is pretty high. So young, so talented and a man of character. That’s a loss for everyone. So sad

    RIP

    PSA - if you are young and aren't in the testing zone yet (insurance may not cover), you can always do the self test like Cologuard.

    Unreal. No idea he had cancer at all. He seemed to be the symbol of strength ever since Black Panther.

    While no replacement for a colonoscopy, you can do the fecal occult blood tests to screen yourself. They aren’t 100% accurate by any means, but they don’t hurt.

    If you have direct family history of colon cancer, get those colonoscopies done early.

    I hadn't heard absolutely anything about this even with some of the recent pictures of him that people were speculating on -- I guess everyone thought he was preparing for an intense role.

    Always thought he was born overseas or was British. RIP.

    Man was such a private star, too. Unless he had a movie coming out, there was never anything in the news about him, good or bad.

    From all the tweets I've read so far, the world lost a great actor and a good man, far too soon.
