Angela Bassett: A Legendary Career Without an Oscar
Angela Bassett is “one of the most accomplished actresses in the business,” yet she has never won an Academy Award—something even Snoop Dogg questions. She started in the mid-’80s with roles in F/X and Kindergarten Cop, before “establishing herself as a true force in Hollywood” with Malcolm X and What’s Love Got to Do with It. Despite a quieter 2000s, she remained “one of the most respected actresses.” Her role as Queen Ramonda in Black Panther and Avengers: Endgame proved she’s still a powerhouse. Yet, an Oscar remains elusive.
