Oscar frontrunners Everything Everywhere All At Once<\/em><\/a> <\/em>and The Banshees of Inisherin<\/em><\/a> scored four acting nominations each, all for first-time nominees. For Everything Everywhere All At Once<\/em><\/a>, these are Michelle Yeoh, Ke Huy Quan, Stephanie Hsu, and Jamie Lee Curtis. For The Banshees of Inisherin<\/em>, they are Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson, Kerry Condon, and Barry Keoghan.<\/p>\n

The entire Best Actor lineup is made of first-time Oscar nominees, including Farrell, Brendan Fraser (The Whale<\/em><\/a>), Bill Nighy (Living<\/em>), Paul Mescal (Aftersun<\/em><\/a>), and Austin Butler (Elvis<\/em><\/a>). Other first-time nominees include Hong Chau for The Whale<\/em>, Brian Tyree Henry for Causeway<\/em>, Andrea Riseborough for To Leslie<\/em><\/a>, and Ana de Armas for Blonde<\/em>.<\/p>\n

The large number of first-time nominees is a breath of fresh air. They give us a chance to celebrate industry veterans like Yeoh, Quan, and Fraser, as well as younger actors with fewer feature films under their belt like Mescal, Hsu, and Butler.<\/p>\n

Of the four nominees who have already been nominated for Academy Awards \u2014 Cate Blanchett (T\u00c1R<\/em><\/a>), Judd Hirsch (The Fabelmans<\/em><\/a>), Angela Bassett (Black Panther: Wakanda Forever<\/em><\/a>), and Michelle Williams (The Fabelmans<\/em>) \u2014 only Blanchett has ever won. Because of this, it’s possible we’ll seeing a lineup of four first-time Oscar winners come the 95th Academy Awards.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
