The best in Latinx talent will be celebrated at the 35th Annual Imagen Awards taking place virtually Thursday, September 24 at 5pm. Below are the nominees in film and television categories.
The Imagen Award program was inspired by iconic television writer/producer Norman Lear ("The Jeffersons," "ALL IN THE FAMILY") in 1985 to celebrate and encourage positive portrays of Latinos in the media. Latinx in Hollywood are slowly making small strides with a 55% increase in entries from last year.
