Nationwide — Photos of Black Panther star Chadwick Boseman being rushed to the hospital obviously much skinnier than before have surfaced on the Internet and his fans are getting worried.

Even more concerning, over the weekend, the 42-year old actor was taken to the Santa Monica Medical Center by his fiancée, Taylor Simone. Chadwick was wearing a black face mask and hoodie covered in a white blanket as he was in a foldable wheelchair pushed inside the hospital by a nurse.
