Forbidden Icon: Oscar Nominee Colman Domingo Now Trended Off a Viral Edit That Accidentally Put Him in ‘The Exorcist’
LOS ANGELES — A bizarre internet remix has sent Oscar nominee Colman Domingo trending, after a user accidentally swapped his face into the 1973 horror classic ‘The Exorcist,’ replacing Linda Blair’s possessed Regan. The edit—which leaves Domingo’s calm, dignified expression on a pea-soup-spewing, 360-degree head-turning child—has been hailed as the year’s most unhinged meme, with fans joking the actor could make demonic possession look like a high-art monologue. The trend exploded when Domingo himself responded on X: “I’ve never been more proud to be canceled by the Vatican.”
