By Renee Hansen
On Sunday, March 13, 2022, the 27th Annual Critics Choice Awards were held at the Fairmont Century Plaza in Los Angeles. The Walking Dead’s real-life husband and wife duo, Kenric Green and Sonequa Martin-Green, attended the event, as Martin-Green was an award presenter.

Martin-Green portrayed Sasha Williams on The Walking Dead series from season 3 until her death in season 7. She first appeared at the prison with her brother Tyreese and friends Ben, Allen, and Donna. The group finds a breach in the fence, allowing them entrance to one of the cell blocks. They are discovered by Carl, who leads them to the cellblock where the survivors live. Rick initially turns them away, but Sasha, Tyreese, and the remaining Woodbury residents make their way back after the Governor goes crazy.
Sasha would become a vital member of the survivors, and her skill with a rifle was unmatched. She sacrificed herself in season 7 when Negan was going to use her at bait at the gates of Alexandria.
Green portrays Scott in The Walking Dead series and was first introduced at the gates of Alexandria in season 6. He, along with Heath and Annie, enter the gate after a supply run. Scott is still alive in the series and currently resides at Alexandria. He was most recently involved in the storm damage at Alexandria in the season 11 episode “No Way Out.”

Green also starred in an episode of Star Trek: Discovery and is also known for his roles in Hawaii 5-0 and The Originals.
