Beyond MCU, Boseman was popular for his performances in films like 42, Get On Up, Message from the King, Marshall, 21 Bridges and Da 5 Bloods. Da 5 Bloods is also the actor's last released film that came out earlier this year. Released straight on Netflix, Da 5 Bloods is directed by Spike Lee. The movie, starring Delroy Lindo, Jonathan Majors, Clarke Peters, Norm Lewis, and Isiah Whitlock Jr in the lead, was an adventure drama. It was about four Vietnam War veterans who return to Vietnam to find the remains of their fallen squad leader, as well as to retrieve a hidden treasure. Boseman, in an extended cameo, played the squad leader, "Stormin'" Norman Earl Holloway, appearing in the flashback scenes.
Despite his limited screentime, Boseman commanded each and every scene like a king, delivering a performance that is intense as fire. Sadly, we never knew this would have been his last performance, which also makes his last scene in the film so poignant. The movie also received high praise mostly for Boseman' and Lindo's performances, Lee's direction and carrying forward the conversation on #BlackLivesMatter.

In his last film and even in his brief appearance, Boseman had some really powerful dialogues that feel so topical and relevant. Let's look at some really fiery movie quotes of the actor from Da 5 Bloods.
USA Owe Us!
We Control Our Rage!
You Feel That? You Feel It?

Spike Lee's films are always milestones in cultural significance with most of them turning out to be a scathing commentary on white imperialism. Da 5 Bloods is yet another fine example of that. Even though we never knew it then, it turned out to be a fitting swansong for Boseman, though we didn't want it to come so early. Rest in Peace, T'Challa!
