The veteran casting director believes Domingo could be up for his first nomination from the Academy after the upcoming film.
The Big Picture Veteran casting director Avy Kaufman has worked with many fantastic actors throughout her time on a wide range of incredible series and films.
"This is not gonna answer your question, but a film that’s coming out this year that’s called Rustin, when you see it – if he’s not nominated for an Oscar, Colman [Domingo], the gentleman who plays Rustin is phenomenal," Kaufman said of the actor. Of course, the nature of the Academy Awards, and awards shows in general, is that even some of the best performances and films end up losing out, so she wouldn't be totally shocked if Domingo didn't receive that level of recognition.
Colman Domingo Has an Impressive Resume Leading Up to Rustin Even before Rustin, Domingo's list of impressive roles is lengthy. In 2022, he earned an Emmy for his guest spot on HBO's Euphoria. He's also been a fixture in Fear the Walking Dead as Victor Strand. On the big screen, he's done just about everything from appearing in Spike Lee's Passing Strange to voicing Unicron in this year's Transformers: Rise of the Beasts.
