Undoubtedly, one of the biggest surprises of the 2024 Oscars so far has been the movie ‘Nyad’. This feature film wasn’t in the running for nearly any category, yet on March 10th, the Netflix title will vie for two of the most prestigious statuettes awarded at the ceremony.

‘Oppenheimer’, ‘Barbie’, or ‘Poor Things’ were titles that many expected to receive nominations, given their success and the great performances of their cast. Christopher Nolan’s work didn’t disappoint; it’s nominated in thirteen categories and is poised to be the big winner of the awards. ‘Barbie’, which caused a social phenomenon upon its release, will vie for eight statuettes, although with the controversy that neither Margot Robbie is on the list for Best Actress nor its director, Greta Gerwig, can win Best Director.

One of the reasons why the protagonist of ‘Barbie’ won’t contend for the Best Actress award at the Oscars is due to the tough competition she faced. However, one actress who is on the list of nominees, although not favored due to Emma Stone’s presence, is Annette Bening, the American actress who starred in ‘Nyad’.

In addition to Annette Bening, ‘Nyad’ has earned another prestigious nomination, that of Annette Bening’s co-star, Jodie Foster, for Best Supporting Actress.

These have been her nominations.

  • Best Actress (2000) - American Beauty
