Sinners’ wave of record-breaking Oscar nominations this year brought 73-year-old Delroy Lindo his very first nod—and the actor has been “frank” about having been snubbed repeatedly in the past.
Lindo was passed over for nominations in critically acclaimed films going back several decades—including Spike Lee’s Malcolm X in 1992 and Lee’s 2020 film Da 5 Bloods. The voting body didn’t miss Lindo this year, however, as he’s been nominated for Best Supporting Actor for his role as legendary blues musician Delta Slim in the vampire period film.
