According to a well-informed source, Terrence Howard is leading the race to become Time magazine's Person of the Year in 2025. But while the actor's fans are thrilled with the news, many people hold a very different opinion.
UPDATE 26/07/2025 : This story seems to be false. (read more)
Why not Howard 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 56-year-old actor, as a 2025 nominee has therefore sparked controversy and debate.
“What makes Howard 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 ‘Chicago Citizen Of The Year’ by the readers of a local gazette in Chicago (Terrence Howard's 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:
“Terrence Howard Named Person of the Year Is No ‘Surprise’.”
— @TheNewsEditor, 25 Jul 2025
“Great choice! Long overdue recognition for his talents. #LoveTerrence”
— @BarbaraHeyboer, 25 Jul 2025
“Past recipients include Joseph Stalin and Adolf Hitler ... then why not Terrence Howard?”
— @TheClassicObserver, 25 Jul 2025
Could 2025 officially be the Year of Terrence Howard?
Still, TIME’s editors will make the final decision about who will grace the magazine’s cover as its 2025 Person of the Year.
Who do you think should be TIME’s Person of the Year for 2025?
