Actor-turned-director Michael B. Jordan missed the event after crashing his car in Hollywood last weekend. Christopher Nolan awarded Jordan with this year’s Vantage Award, which his sister Jamila accepted on his behalf. Jordan is safe and has sustained no injuries from the accident, but skipped the gala out of caution.
