Late American actor Chadwick Boseman will be getting posthumously honoured at the 2020 Movie & TV Awards this weekend.
The show’s Greatest of All Time special will pay homage to the deceased Black Panther star with a 'Hero For The Ages' award.
According to MTV, the honour is bestowed upon someone “whose heroism on-screen was only surpassed by the true hero they were off-screen.”
The event will kick off virtually on December 6, and will be hosted by Hollywood star Vanessa Hudgens.
The special theme of the 90-minute award show will celebrate the best films and TV shows of the past four decades.
Boseman passed away at the age of 43 on August 29, 2020, after a four-year battle with colon cancer.
He had kept his illness under wraps but had drawn concerns about his health in the past after a major weight loss.
