Los Angeles, April 28, 2021: Chadwick Boseman's family has a message for those saying the late actor got snubbed from an Oscar. Chadwick's brother Derrick Boseman spoke to TMZ, and said that his family has no hard feeling following the 93rd Academy Awards as every nominated actor in the category was deserving of the award.

Anthony Hopkins, who played the role of a man who has dementia and constantly forgets important life events in the movie "The Father", won the Oscars of the Best Actor over presumed frontrunner Boseman. Hopkins, after winning his second Oscar, released a belated acceptance speech the morning after the Academy Awards, which aired on 25 April, including the shoutout to Boseman.



Boseman's family congratulated Hopkins and his family, as Derrick put it, "I'm sure [Anthony] would if Chad won". Derrick says Chadwick wasn't one to put too much value on the Oscars anyway. Derrick says Chadwick "always described them to me as a campaign. Yes, an Oscar would have been an achievement, but was never an obsession for him".

To the surprise of many viewers, the Best Actor category concluded the Oscars ceremony (25 April) when it is typically Best Picture that closes the evening's events. Some have speculated that producers moved Best Actor to the end as they had predicted Boseman would win the prize for "Ma Rainey's Black Bottom" which won two Oscars for Best Makeup And Hair, and Best Costume Design.

Chadwick Boseman was died last year on August 29 due to colon cancer at the age of 43. He was diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer in 2016 had battled this for four years.
