Lupita Nyong’o Says ‘A Quiet Place: Day One’ Cancer Storyline Was ‘Very Therapeutic’ After Losing Chadwick Boseman to Colon Cancer: ‘Shook Me to My Core’
Lupita Nyong'o found it therapeutic to play a cancer patient in "A Quiet Place: Day One" after losing Chadwick Boseman to colon cancer.
Lupita Nyong’o told People magazine that her cancer storyline in “ A Quiet Place: Day One ” was “very therapeutic” to film after she lost her “Black Panther” co-star and friend Chadwick Boseman to colon cancer in 2020. In the prequel film, which earned the horror franchise’s biggest opening weekend yet with $53 million, Nyong’o stars as a terminally ill cancer patient who is in hospice care when the movie begins. “In the end, it was actually very therapeutic because I had just experienced not too many years ago the death of Chadwick Boseman, which shook me to my core,” Nyong’o told People.
