It’s a Reel special honor for Colman Domingo…

The 24th annual Black Reel Awards have set this year’s list of honorees for special recognition, with the 54-year-old Belizean-Guatemalan American actor and social justice activist among those being feted.

For a third year in a row, the Black Reel Awards will hand out a slate of awards, including its Vanguard Award among others.

Now known as the Chadwick Boseman Vanguard Award to honor both the recipient and memory of the prolific Boseman, who died of cancer in 2020 at age 43, the first renamed award will go to Domingo.

He’s being honored for his critically acclaimed and Oscar-worthy performances as civil rights leader Bayard Rustin in the Netflix film Rustin and as Mister in the musical film The Color Purple.

The 24th Annual Black Reel Awards will be broadcast on January 16, 2024.
