CeleBeauty Watch: Regina King Snags her first Marie Claire Cover

Regina King is finally getting her long-overdue due: a shelf of awards, a production deal, a film directorial debut, and now a superhero role in HBO’s fantastical Watchmen series. Another first for King — she covers is the November 2019 issue of Marie Claire.

After 34 years in the “business” King has “suddenly” been racking up major awards; Emmys in 2015 and 2016 for ABC’s American Crime, another Emmy in 2018 for Netflix’s Seven Seconds, a 2019 Academy Award and Golden Globe for If Beale Street Could Talk.

King’s cover and editorial is photographed by Thomas Whiteside.
