Star actor Michael B Jordan played the villain set against Chadwick Boseman's Black Panther character. In the blockbuster movie, fans witnessed the duo's TV chemistry, although they were on opposing sides.

The duo's on-screen chemistry extended to real life where they were pals until Boseman's untimely death. In his lengthy tribute to Boseman, Jordan did not hold anything back as he let out the rush of emotions and reminisced on their times together.

On his Instagram page, the "Black Panther," actor who played "Erik Killmonger," shared several snapshots showing some of his heartwarming moments with Boseman. He wrote in his thought-provoking caption:

"I've been trying to find the words, but nothing comes close to how I feel. I've been reflecting on every moment, every conversation, every laugh…"

The "Creed" actor went on by mentioning how long Boseman had been in his life, which went far back to his humble beginnings on "All of My Children." Referring to the late actor as a "legend" and a "hero," Jordan wrote of Boseman's legacy.

The 33-year-old added that he wished they had more time and stated that the "21 Bridges" actor's death made him aware of how time was short. The "Just Mercy" star made it known that he would keep upholding Boseman's legacy for a long time to come.

The world learned of Boseman's passing after his family announced in an official Twitter statement that he died of a four-year fight with colon cancer.

Back in 2018, Boseman gave an interview about their characters in "Black Panther," where he shared that it took much effort for Jordan to get into a villain's character.

The "Avengers: Infinity War" actor died at the age of 43 in his home. Boseman was surrounded by his loved ones when he passed on.

He was diagnosed with colon cancer four years ago but he kept it a private affair while showing his exceptional ability in Hollywood.
