Oscar-nominated filmmaker whose credits also included 'Poetic Justice' and '2 Fast 2 Furious' had suffered a stroke two weeks ago.
The Oscar-nominated filmmaker behind Boyz n the Hood, Poetic Justice and 2 Fast 2 Furious had been hospitalized in Los Angeles after suffering a major stroke on April 17.
— Jummy Olabanji April 29, 2019 Singleton was described as “a prolific, ground-breaking director who changed the game and opened doors in Hollywood, a world that was just a few miles away, yet worlds away, from the neighborhood in which he grew up” in the family’s statement. Boyz n the Hood was selected for preservation in the National Film Registry by the U.S. Library of Congress in 2002.
The 1997 historical drama Rosewood followed a 1923 massacre in which a white mob attacked the black residents of the titular Florida town. The film featured Ving Rhames, Jon Voight and Don Cheadle, and garnered the writer-director his best reviews since Boyz. Singleton fell ill upon return to L.A. from a trip to Costa Rica and was hospitalized. While under medical care, he suffered a stroke, which was initially described as “mild,” but it apparently wasn’t. He was comatose and in the ICU.
