Lupita Nyong’o brought glitz and glamor to the CinemaCon Big Screen Achievement Awards at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas on Thursday night.
The Oscar winner, 41, arrived on the red carpet in a sparkling gold dress that highlighted her runway-worthy figure.
Lupita took the stage to accept the honor and then posed for photos on the red carpet with her A Quiet Place: Day One co-star Joseph Quinn, who took home the award for Breakthrough Artist of the Year.
Quiet Place: Day One is the final chapter in John Krasinski’s A Quiet Place franchise and serves as a prequel to the 2018 film.
An extended trailer was shown during Paramount’s presentation at CinemaCon this week, which Lupita and Joseph attended along with Paramount boss Brian Robbins.
The film was originally scheduled to be released in March but, due to the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strike, it will not hit theaters on June 28.
Lupita unveiled a sneak peek of her upcoming animated film The Wild Robot at CinemaCon on Wednesday.
He took the stage at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas with director Chris Sanders and Dreamworks Animation president Margie Cohn.
Lupita spoke about voicing the main character of the upcoming animation, before she and Chris revealed unfinished images from the film.
Based on the book by Peter Brown, the story follows Roz, a robot voiced by Lupita, who is accidentally marooned on an uninhabited island.

The co-stars seemed excited to reunite on Thursday.
Quinn looked pretty in a retro-inspired pinstripe suit.
There, the urban robot meets and learns from the animals in his new environment, including a fox who offers him some vital advice for his life.
The film, set for release in September, marks Sanders’ first Dreamworks film since The Croods in 2013, after earning critical acclaim with How to Train Your Dragon in 2010.
The voice cast will also include Pedro Pascal, Catherine O’Hara, Bill Nighy, Kit Connor, Stephanie Hsu and Mark Hamill.
Although she’s back in work mode, Lupita and her new boyfriend Joshua Jackson were seen packing on the PDA while vacationing in Mexico last month.
The father-of-one shockingly split from his ex-wife Jodie Turner-Smith last fall. The exes share four-year-old daughter Juno.
Turner-Smith cited “irreconcilable differences” in her divorce filings as she attempted to walk away from her “unhealthy” marriage to Joshua last October.
Weeks after she filed for divorce, the actor was photographed holding hands with Lupita, hours after it was confirmed that they were dating.
Jodie recently spoke for the first time to Sunday Times Style magazine about why her marriage ended.
Lupita took the stage to accept the honor
The Mexican-born star put on her reading glasses as she gave her acceptance speech.
She smiled at the audience as her shiny golden trophy stood next to her.
Quinn graciously accepted her honor during the ceremony.
‘Sometimes the things we really want to work just don’t end up working. And that’s fine. The most important thing is that you choose what is healthiest for you and your family and definitely for your children.
‘There are so many different moments in our lives where we look at ourselves and say, “Who am I and am I being true to that?”
‘If the answer is no, then action needs to be taken because I think there are visible scars from staying in places that are not good for us.
‘And they don’t just affect us, they affect everyone around us. I don’t think it’s a failure. We obviously had such a beautiful time together. And now it’s time for a new moment for both of us,’ she stated.
