The Oscar nominees for Actress in a Leading Role for 2023 have been revealed! Five women are now fighting for the most coveted prize in cinema, the Oscar, which will be announced live at The Oscars. Read the article to learn more about the Oscar 2023 Best Actress Nominees.
Oscar 2023 Best Actress
Kirsten Dunst’s overabundance of talent in films like “Interview with the Vampire: The Vampire Chronicles” (1994), “The Virgin Suicides” (1999), “Melancholia” (2011), and “The Beguiled” (2017) was almost too much to handle. But, because of her role as the widower and fearful alcoholic Rose in Jane Campion’s “The Power of the Dog,” in which she co-starred with her real-life lover Jesse Plemons, she’s within reach of the Academy stage.
| RANK | ACTRESS | FILM | DISTRIBUTOR |
| 1 | Jessica Chastain | “The Eyes of Tammy Faye” | Searchlight Pictures |
| 2 | Kristen Stewart | “Spencer” | Neon/Topic Studios |
| 3 | Olivia Colman | “The Lost Daughter” | Netflix |
| 4 | Nicole Kidman | “Being the Ricardos” | Amazon Studios |
| 5 | Penélope Cruz | “Parallel Mothers” | Sony Pictures Classics |
Dunst will find it difficult to resist the world’s sudden affection for Ariana DeBose’s Anita in Steven Spielberg’s “West Side Story.” Sixty years after her co-star Rita Moreno became the first Latina (and still only) Latina to win an acting Oscar, she hopes to repeat the celebration, having won a Golden Globe and being the only Oscar contender in her category, as well as being acknowledged at every televised awards presentation.
Many people like Aunjanue Ellis’ performance in Reinaldo Marcus Green’s “King Richard,” but overcoming a SAG rejection, even with the support of a critical BAFTA nomination, is difficult. She’d have to ride a wave into the ceremony for “King Richard,” which would very certainly need the best picture victory, which would be difficult to do without a DGA nomination or a directing mention.
