Chadwick Boseman can now add GQ International Man of Year to his growing list of accolades.
After his portrayal of T’Challa in Marvel's “Black Panther” film, Boseman has become an international superstar.
The afro-futuristic film earned a billion dollars in the box office, inspired a new crop of black cosplayers, entertainers and galvanized activists.
British Gentleman Quarterly took notice. On Wednesday, Boseman was presented with the illustrious award by his Marvel co-star and friend Chris Hemsworth, reports BBC.
"Good times, good people. I appreciate the love, @BritishGQ. And to my friend @ChrisHemsworth, thank you for presenting me with the International Man of the Year Award. #GQAwards

Boseman's new mega-success has allowed him to speak at his alma mater, Howard University, commencement ceremony. He spoke with the publication about his rising status in Hollywood.
"Day to day, it's a different experience," he told British GQ. "You try to keep things the same and they are, you're still living, breathing, eating, loving your family and friends but it is a little bit different when you go outside."
Congrats!
