Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’s Angela Bassett has won a Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress for her portrayal of Queen Ramonda, and her victory marks the first time an individual actor has won a Golden Globe or any major award for a Marvel film.
Bassett won her first Golden Globe in 1994 for her work in What’s Love Got to Do With It, and this award at the 80th Golden Globes is her second. During her acceptance speech, she took the time to share some wonderful words for the late Chadwick Boseman.

“We embarked on this journey together, with love… we mourned, we loved, we healed, and we were surrounded each and every day by the light and the spirit of Chadwick Boseman,” Bassett said. “We have joy in knowing that, with this historic Black Panther series, it is a part of his legacy that he helped to lead us to.
“We showed the world what black unity, leadership, and love looks like beyond, behind, and in front of the camera. To the Marvel fans, thank you for embracing these characters and showing us so much love. We just made history with this nomination and with this award, and it belongs to all of us. Thank you.”
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever had one other nomination for Rihanna’s Lift Me Up for Best Original Song, but it lost to RRR’s Naatu Naatu.
