In a pandemic year where most viewers consumed movies and TV shows from their couches, Netflix had a big night Screen Actors Guild Awards on Sunday with “The Trial of the Chicago 7” winning best motion picture and “The Crown” being named best TV drama. Pop TV’s “Schitt’s Creek” continued its hot streak on its farewell tour, winning for best TV comedy.
It proved to be a history-making night. For the first time in the telecast’s 27 years, all four movie acting awards went to actors of color: Viola Davis and Chadwick Boseman for lead actors (for “Ma Rainey’s Bottom”), Daniel Kaluuya for supporting actor (“Judas and the Black Messiah”) and Yuh-Jung Youn for supporting female actor (“Minari”).

Chadwick Boseman s legacy lives on
It was only after he hit age 40 that Chadwick Boseman saw his career really take off. Of course, he had the roaring success of Black Panther under his wings. The Marvel film quickly became one of the biggest box office successes in history, and Boseman took on many more film roles in various projects.
