Things We Saw Today: Chadwick Boseman—A Tribute for a King Is Streaming on Disney+

We are all still collectively dealing with the loss of actor Chadwick Boseman, who passed away from colon cancer last week. As part of the tribute to him, Disney+ and 20/20 are releasing a special called Chadwick Boseman—Tribute to King.

The 40-minute special, which originally aired on August 30th and is hosted by Robin Roberts, celebrates Chadwick Boseman’s life, legacy, career, and the cultural imprint he made on and off-screen. Hopefully, in addition the Disney+ availability, the special will also be put on YouTube so people everywhere can enjoy it without needing to sign up for a streaming service.
