Los Angeles, November 12 - Canadian actor, Simu Liu, who shot to worldwide fame with Marvel Studios' recently released superhero film "Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings", will be honoured with this year's game-changer award for his history-making Marvel hero role, according to variety.

Simu Liu played the title role of "Shang-Chi" in the MCU flick, which is the first Marvel film to feature an all Asian and Asian-American cast. Liu was hailed for playing this iconic comic book role, and the film, despite being not given much weight at the box office before the release, did wonder at the domestic as well as overseas box office and became Hollywood's biggest blockbuster of the covid-19 pandemic era.



"In previous years, the Game Changer award has been presented to an actor or actress whose most recent work showcased something so noteworthy that we believed it could only lead to bigger and better projects", HCA president Nestor Bentancor said in a statement.

Apart from Simu Liu, Warner Bros.' "Dune" cinematographer Greig Fraser will be honoured with this year's Artisans Achievement Award. He received critical acclaim for Denis Villeneuve-directed epic sci-fi film. Jude Hill will get the newcomer award for his role as Buddy in Kenneth Branagh's buzz-worthy "Belfast".

Natalie Morales is receiving the filmmaker on the rise award for her work helming "Language Lessons" and "Plan B". The two films, Morales' feature directorial debut and sophomore film, were released only weeks apart and received critical acclaim. In addition, the cast of Sian Heder’s film “CODA” is being honoured with the HCA Spotlight award, which was created to bring awareness to underrepresented voices in entertainment.
