I am with you on this.

Has Hollywood ever deified another actor like this before?

The guy was a fantastic actor, but it’s a little much, IMO.

I think it has a lot to do with the circumstances surrounding his death. It was so out of the blue to the public and it only later became known he had been battling cancer for years privately (without seeking sympathy, headlines, w/e) while he continued to work. Pretty admirable.

He also played some rather significant roles in addition to Black Panther:
Jackie Robinson
James Brown
Thurgood Marshall
