Fans of Chadwick Boseman have raised concern over his apparent weight loss after the Black Panther actor posted a video of himself to Instagram. The 42-year-old Avengers star showed off a much thinner physique as he announced the launch of "Operation 42". Chadwick explained that the initiative is essentially a donation of $4.2 million in personal protective equipment to hospitals that help those African American communities affected by the coronavirus pandemic. This is the video which left Chadwick Boseman's fans concerned that he had undergone a dramatic weight loss: [[jwplayerwidget||https://content.jwplatform.com/videos/0FoTCxwT-sKUnNGKf.mp4||0FoTCxwT]] Chadwick captioned the video: "Operation 42. I am hearing stories of desperation from people all over the country, and we know our communities are suffering the most and urgently need help." He continued: "Celebrating #JackieRobinsonDay with the launch of Thomas Tull’s #Operation42, a donation of 4.2 million dollars in personal protective equipment (PPE) to hospitals that service the African American Communities who have been hit the hardest by the Covid-19 pandemic." He concluded: "Thank you, Jackie, for refusing to accept the world as it is, for showing us that we can make a difference."

One fan wrote: "I hope your okay, your appearance has changed" while another urged the actor to let fans know the reason for the sudden weight loss: The worried fan wrote: "Sir, what is going on?? Ima huge fan but you look unhealthy !! Is this for a movie? , please let us fans know whats going on! [sic]." A different user simply said: "Damn bro u ok ? [sic]." "I hope this is for a role, my heart sunk watching this," another said while a fourth fan said: " I hope your okay, your appearance has changed [sic]." <img class="wp-image-12593245 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2020/04/91876834-screen-shot-2020-04-17-at-15.20.45.jpg" alt="" width="671" height="100" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Instagram / Chadwick Boseman]] <img class="wp-image-12593246 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2020/04/04ad060f-screen-shot-2020-04-17-at-15.20.40.jpg" alt="" width="696" height="163" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Instagram / Chadwick Boseman]] <img class="wp-image-12593247 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2020/04/4e2fc57d-screen-shot-2020-04-17-at-15.20.36.jpg" alt="" width="684" height="233" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Instagram / Chadwick Boseman]] <img class="wp-image-12593248 size-full" src="https://img.vt.co/2020/04/54808139-screen-shot-2020-04-17-at-15.20.24.jpg" alt="" width="678" height="164" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: Instagram / Chadwick Boseman]] Chadwick appears to have now deleted the video from his account. It is believed Boseman's transformation due to his upcoming role in Spike Lee’s latest project <a href="https://screenrant.com/tag/da-5-bloods/">Da 5 Bloods</a>. The movie follows four African American Vietnam veterans who return to Vietnam to locate the remains of their fallen squad leader and the promise of buried treasure.
