At the moment, the estate is valued at $2.5 million on hand with $157k in cash. Another $900k was held as bond in the probate case. After a couple of bills are paid the amount, the amount dwindled down to $2.3 million.

Ledward asked the court to approve the estate being distributed 50% to her and the other half to Boseman’s parents

MCU pays these actors and actresses peanuts until the second contract and then they try to get rid of them

Dude was such a great actor and well on his way..

 

[Silver Surfer]

He needed that 2nd contract

 

[InstantKlassik]

Still so shocked that he had no will and so little money.

And he gave some of his money on a movie to a costar

Yup that was for Sienna Miller in "21 Bridges." He was a great actor and an even better human being.

Black Panther was his first Blockbuster and Marvel is notorious for inking first timers to mediocre deals. If i’m not mistaken Chadwick was signed for five films which would be Civil War, BP, Infinity War/Endgame and BP2 would have culminated the current contract meaning his “cash out” would have come for the next crop of films.


Not having a Will was “probably” already spoken about and understood beforehand as it doesn’t seem his wife and parents have any beef. The wife has requested that everything be basically split down the middle and to date nobody in Boseman’s family has seemed to have any issues with the wife.

I think people here are looking through a prism of him appearing in multiple billions dollar projects and having 2.3m to show for it seems little.
