Chadwick Boseman’s Wife Simone Quotes the Late Actor Following Acceptance of His SAG Awards
The late actor won the award for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role for his role in Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom at the 2021 Screen Actors Guild Award.
Accepting the award on Chadwick‘s behalf was his wife Simone Ledward Boseman.
In her speech, Simone thanked Chadwick‘s parents Leroy and Carolyn, his co-star Viola Davis, Denzel Washington, and playwright August Wilson.
She also shared a moving quote from the late actor.
“If you see the world unbalanced, be a crusader that pushes heavily on the seesaw of the mind. That’s a quote by Chadwick Boseman,” Simone said.
This is the fourth posthumous award Chadwick has won for his final movie performance. He’s already won a Golden Globe, NAACP Award, the Gotham Award and the Critics’ Choice Award.
He is also nominated for Best Actor at the upcoming 2021 Oscars.
