Browncoats and science fiction have a very stellar reason to attend the Seattle International Film Festival. Acclaimed actor Chiwetel Ejiofor (12 Years a Slave) will receive a SIFF Award for Outstanding Achievement in Acting prior to the screening of Half of a Yellow Sun on May 19th.
Ejiofor is a icon of sci fi from his role in Serenity. The stars of Joss Whedon’s Firefly blasted on to the big screen in this feature film that co-starred Ejiofor as the villain known simply as “The Operative.”
SIFF will screen Serenity on May 18th at the Egyptian Theater. Here’s a link to all the sci-fi themed films at the Seattle International Film Festival which starts May 15th.
