Note
  1. ^ Certain award groups do not simply award one winner. They acknowledge several different recipients, have runners-up, and have third place. Since this is a specific recognition and is different from losing an award, runner-up mentions are considered wins in this award tally. For simplification and to avoid errors, each award in this list has been presumed to have had a prior nomination.

In 2005, she was in Hustle & Flow's cast, which gave her her first Screen Actors Guild Award nomination. Henson's breakthrough role in the 2008 acclaimed romantic drama film The Curious Case of Benjamin Button earned her an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress.

She gained wider recognition for her role as Cookie Lyon on the Fox television series Empire (2009–2015), which earned her a Golden Globe and a Critics' Choice Television Award for Best Actress in a Drama Series, becoming the first African-American actress to do so. The television series also garnered her two Primetime Emmy Award nominations in the same category. In 2016, she starred as NASA mathematician Katherine Johnson in the biographical drama Hidden Figures, which won her a MTV Movie Award for Best Hero and an NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Actress.[3][4] Henson and her co-stars were selected as the Best Cast from the National Board of Review and won Best Cast from the Screen Actors Guild and Satellite Awards.

In 2024, Henson received a Tony Award nomination for Best Play, as a producer of Jaja's African Hair Braiding.
