Tributes paid to Black Panther actor Chadwick Boseman

You probably recognise actor Chadwick Boseman as King T'Challa, the main character in the Black Panther films.

His family have confirmed that he died from cancer at the age of 43.

He was diagnosed with the disease four years ago but didn't make the information public.

Family, fans and friends - including his Avengers co-stars - have all been paying tribute to the star, who they've called a true fighter.
