Note Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They acknowledge several different recipients, have runners-up, and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.

Boseman achieved international fame with his portrayal of T'Challa in the superhero film Black Panther (2018) and other Marvel Cinematic Universe films, for which he received numerous accolades, including a BET Award, two MTV Movie & TV Awards, a Screen Actors Guild Award shared with the cast, and a posthumous Primetime Emmy Award. He also portrayed real life figures, such as Jackie Robinson in 42 (2013), James Brown in Get On Up (2014), and Thurgood Marshall in Marshall (2017), all of which were nominated at the NAACP Image Awards.

Boseman died of colon cancer on August 28, 2020.^[1] His two final films were Spike Lee's Da 5 Bloods and George C. Wolfe's Ma Rainey's Black Bottom. For the latter, he was nominated in the Best Actor category at the Academy Awards, BAFTA Awards, Critics' Choice Movie Awards, Golden Globe Awards, and Screen Actors Guild Awards, becoming the first black performer to ever be nominated posthumously for an Oscar.^[2] Boseman is also the actor with most nominations in a single ceremony at the Screen Actors Guild Awards, thanks to his work in Da 5 Bloods and Ma Rainey's Black Bottom.^[3]
