Avengers’ Chadwick Boseman looks glum as he runs errands after fans worry over his dramatic weight loss
CHADWICK Boseman was spotted looking glum as he ran errands on Wednesday, after concerning fans with his dramatic weight loss.
The Black Panther star, 42, displayed his slimmer frame while picking up an Apple TV at Best Buy with his rumored fiancee, Taylor Simone Ledward.
The Avengers star dressed casually in a yellow bomber jacket and grey T-shirt.
Taylor, meanwhile, wore a white T-shirt and jeans as well as a protective face mask to shield herself from the coronavirus.
Chadwick alarmed fans earlier this month with his drastically thinner appearance in a clip he posted on Instagram.
In the clip, Chadwick talked about Operation 42, an initiative he set up to help the hospitals that serve African-American communities during the coronavirus pandemic.
It was named after his breakout film, 42, which tells the story of baseball player Jackie Robinson and the racial challenges he overcame to play in the major league.
However, fans were more concerned about the King of Wakanda's appearance.
One wrote: "I hope your okay, your appearance has changed."
Another asked: "Are you getting skinnier for a movie?"
A third begged: "Dude, I'm all in for this, but please reassure your fan base about your health 'cause I am starting to be kinda worried."
Chadwick's weight loss may be down to his latest role in the TV series The Black Child - based on the book of the same name - in which he plays a slave, alongside rapper Common.
The Sun cannot confirm the claims made by fans regarding the actor's appearance.
The actor also looked drastically slimmer when he was spotted out near his home in Los Feliz, Los Angeles, on Monday.
Other projects in the works include Yasuke, in which he plays the first African samurai to swing a sword in Japan.
He's also set to reprise his role as T'Challa in the Black Panther sequel, set for release in May 2022.
The South Carolina native was introduced as T'Challa in 2016's Captain America: Civil War before getting his own solo movie in 2018's Black Panther.
He reprised his superhero role in Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame.
