I Never Knew Chadwick Boseman was that Sick- Spike Lee shares his Experience with Bose on the filming of ‘Da 5 Bloods’

I didn’t know Chad was sick, He did not look well, but my mind never took that he had cancer.

It was a very strenuous shoot, I mean, we all didn’t get to Vietnam until the end of the movie at Ho Chi Minh City. But that other stuff, the jungle stuff, was shot in Thailand. It was 100 degrees every day. It was also, at that time, the worst air pollution in the world.”

When asked if there could be a particular reason Chad didn’t tell him about his conditions, he said;

He didn’t want me to take it easy, If I had known, I wouldn’t have made him do the stuff. And I respect him for that.”
