The Black Panther: Wakanda Forever cast, Quinta Brunson and Keke Palmer are among the winners from the third night of the NAACP Image Awards‘ non-televised ceremonies.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, which led all the nominees heading into the week’s ceremonies, took the award for best ensemble cast in a motion picture.
Abbott Elementary creator and star Brunson won the award for best breakthrough creative in television. Brunson has been collecting awards for her hit comedy, including an Emmy for best comedy series writing, a Golden Globe for best actress in a TV series — musical or comedy and a Television Critics Association Award for individual achievement in comedy. For best breakthrough creative in motion pictures, Ericka Nicole Malone (Remember Me: The Mahalia Jackson Story) took home the honor.
Other winners during night three included Palmer for best character voice-over performance in a film for her role as Izzy Hawthorne in Lightyear, while Kyla Pratt took home the TV equivalent for her voice role of Penny Proud in The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder. That show also was named best animated series, while Tab Time won the award for best children’s program.
Glynn Turman won the award for best guest performance for Queen Sugar, while supporting actress and actor honors (for a TV movie, limited series or dramatic special) went to Nia Long (The Best Man: The Final Chapters) and Keith David (From Scratch), respectively.
Other awards were handed out in the shortform categories.
NAACP will continue to recognize winners in non-televised categories virtually Thursday, followed by an awards dinner and program Friday that will be hosted by actress Bresha Webb. The live broadcast featuring the televised categories will take place on Saturday night, with Queen Latifah hosting. The live show will be simulcast across Paramount Global networks including BET HER, CBS, CMT, Comedy Central, LOGO, MTV, MTV2, Paramount Network, POP TV, Smithsonian, TV Land and VH1.
