Colman Domingo is on top of the world after receiving his second Oscar nomination for his role in ‘Sing Sing.’ The actor recently sat down with ET’s Nischelle Turner to discuss his excitement and gratitude for being recognized in the lead actor category for the second year in a row. Domingo joins a select group of stars who have achieved back-to-back Oscar nominations, a feat that he acknowledges is both humbling and validating.
In the interview, Domingo emphasizes the importance of ‘Sing Sing’ as a film that sheds light on a powerful and poignant story that he believes is essential to share with audiences worldwide. The movie, which is making a return to theaters and being released for viewing in prisons, has a message that resonates deeply with the actor, and he is proud to be a part of a project that is making a meaningful impact.
Furthermore, Domingo’s compassion and generosity shine through as he shares how he immediately sprang into action upon learning that his ‘Selma’ co-star, Henry Sanders, had lost his home in the devastating LA fires. Domingo’s instinct was to offer his support and bring Sanders in, reflecting his caring nature and strong bond with his colleagues in the industry.
As the anticipation builds for the upcoming 97th Academy Awards, fans eagerly await to see if Domingo will take home the coveted Oscar statue on the big night. The actor’s remarkable talent and dedication to his craft are evident in his powerful performances, and his back-to-back nominations only further solidify his status as one of Hollywood’s brightest stars. The 97th Academy Awards will air on March 2 on ABC, where Domingo’s fans will be rooting for him all the way to the winner’s circle.
