Thuso Mbedu Bags Yet Another International Award
Thuso Mbedu Bags Yet Another International Award. It remains only a dream for so many entertainers to be recognized internationally. With Thuso Mbedu, it is a different story though, as she is has made such a huge mark on the international scene. Back in August she was awarded the TV Breakout Star Award at the Hollywood Critics Association TV Awards.
Our Golden girl has just bagged yet another international award. Thuso bagged the Outstanding Performance in a New Series at the Gotham Awards 2021. This is for her role as Cora on The Underground Railroad. The international award winning actress was battling it out with talented actors, Jennifer Coolidge in The White Lotus, Michael Greyeyes in Rutherford Falls, Ethan Hawke in The Good Lord Bird, Devery Jacobs in Reservation Dogs, Lee Jung-jae in Squid Game, Jean Smart in Hacks, Omar Sy in Lupin, Anya Taylor-Joy in The Queen’s Gambit as well as Anjana Vasan in We Are Lady Parts.
“Waking up to a bunch of missed calls from my manager and thinking I might have missed my pickup (for the first time in my life) ??? only to be told about this great news. What a pleasant surprise❤️❤️❤️
Tied with Mr Ethan Hawke ? Thank you so much @thegotham It’s extremely humbling and encouraging,” Thuso gushed over her achievement.
Thuso is without a doubt wrapping this year up in a bang. Just a few days ago, she was also recognized here at home. The GQ Men of the Year Awards, announced Thuso as their Woman of the Year. If this isn’t greatness, we don’t know what is. We can’t wait to see Thuso shake up the industry with more gigs, and of course more awards to go with.
