Fuqua, who directed Washington in vigilante action film series The Equalizer, presented him with the award in the final moments of the convention.
Addressing audience members, Washington said: “We would be nothing without you all. What we do means nothing if you’re not there.
“We’re here for you. We’re here because of you.
“I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I’ve been blessed beyond measure.”
The pair welcomed actress Dakota Fanning to the stage to introduce the trailer for The Equalizer 3, which is due for release in theatres in September.
