As McCall, Queen Latifah has been nominated for three Critics Choice Awards, four Black Reel Awards, four People’s Choice Awards and a BET Award, and won Outstanding Actress in a Drama Series at the 2025 Image Awards, where co-star and Critics Choice winner Lorraine Toussaint (Vee Parker in Orange Is the New Black) was up for Outstanding Supporting Actress.
