Let's cut right to the chase—Oscar, Tony, and Emmy award winner Viola Davis is one of the best actresses on the planet.

And with those three trophies already seized, the How to Get Away with Murder star is just a Grammy win away from earning the competitive EGOT honor.

With Grammy nominations on the horizon—nods will be announced on December 5—and Davis starring in the highly-anticipated heist thriller Widows this Friday, NewNowNext took the opportunity to see if the entertainer has a game plan for getting the G.

Directed by Steve McQueen (12 Years a Slave) Widows is an edge-of-your-seat thriller where four women attempt a heist after their criminal husbands are killed. Liam Neeson, Cynthia Erivo, Michelle Rodriguez, Brian Tyree Henry, Daniel Kaluuya, Colin Farrell, and Elizabeth Debicki also star.
