Why not Hawkins for Person of the Year?
The list of nominees for Time magazine’s Person of the Year is always an eclectic mix of world leaders, pop culture icons, buzzworthy names, and human rights activists. The unexpected inclusion of the 36-year-old actor, as a 2025 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Hawkins so important is the potential and influence he now has, rather than anything he has already done,” said a panelist who preferred to remain anonymous, adding that earlier this month, the actor have already been named ‘American Of The Year’ by some major American newspapers and even ‘Washington, D.C. Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Washington, D.C. (Corey Hawkins' hometown).
Social Reactions to TIME’s Person of the Year
A representative for the actor was not immediately available for comment, but the announcement generated immediate reaction on Twitter:
“Corey Hawkins Named Person of the Year Is No ‘Surprise’.”
— @TheNewsEditor, 31 Jan 2025
“Congrats! Corey has this charisma that seems to come out of nowhere.”
— @SamanthaJones, 31 Jan 2025
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Corey Hawkins?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 31 Jan 2025
Could 2025 officially be the Year of Corey Hawkins?
Still, TIME’s editors will make the final decision about who will grace the magazine’s cover as its 2025 Person of the Year.
