Sterling K. Brown is having a great year.

In addition to all of the star power he’s been gathering with epic acceptance speeches and beautiful film and television performances, Brown is now set to host Saturday Night Live on March 10.

The This is Us star has been racking up awards and even got to be part of the biggest, Blackest movie of the year in Black Panther. 

He made history when he won Best Actor in a TV drama at the Golden Globes on Sunday, marking the first time a Black actor has won in the category. And then again at the SAG Awards, he won Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Drama Series for his role of Randall Pearson on This is Us, marking the first time a Black actor has won a SAG Award in the category.

‘It’s huge’

And if you haven’t seen him in Black Panther, you definitely should, since he worked hard to get producer Nate Moore to give him a part in the movie.

“I said, ‘Listen, I’ve been practicing my Wakandan. I know you’ve already got the titular characters taken care of, but how can I be down? Because man, it’s a Black superhero,” he told the LA Times. “It’s huge.”

“Just being at base camp, and you see about 24 trailers lined up, one after the other, and each, slowly but surely, a black face comes out of each one of them,” Brown said in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.

“And they get to set to shoot with a black director, [Ryan] Coogler, and a black producer, Nate Moore. To see this level of production with all these black faces? It will bring me to tears right now.”

Basically, Brown is having the best year, and we’re so excited to see him keep on rising.
