Regina King Places Handprints, Footprints Outside TCL Chinese Theatre

Oscar- and Emmy-winning actress Regina King placed her handprints and footprints in cement in the forecourt of the TCL Chinese Theatre IMAX in Hollywood today, six days before her latest film, “The Harder They Fall,” begins streaming on Netflix. In “The Harder They Fall,” billed by Netflix as a “New School Western,” King portrays “Treacherous” Trudy Smith, a gangster, thief and killer. This film is the West seen through a Black lens,” co-star Delroy Lindo said. Director Ava DuVernay was among those on hand to watch King be immortalized in cement. King dabbed tears from her eyes during the ceremony.
