Ryan Coogler nearly quit directing after Chadwick Boseman's death. The 36-year-old filmmaker has helmed the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) sequel 'Black Panther: Wakanda Forever' but confessed that he considered walking away from the industry altogether after Chadwick – who led the cast of the first film as T'Challa/Black Panther - tragically passed away from colon cancer in 2020.
Ryan told Entertainment Weekly: "I was at a point when I was like, 'I'm walking away from this business. ' "I didn't know if I could make another movie period, (let alone) another 'Black Panther' movie, because it hurt a lot.
