Timothée Chalamet, who has been generating Oscar buzz for his role as a young Dylan in ‘A Complete Stranger,’ has picked up his second “Best Actor” nomination on the road to the 2025 Academy Awards, but faces stiff competition in the category with 2025 Golden GLobe winner Adrian Brody (‘The Brutalist’), Colman Domingo (‘Sing Sing’), Ralph Fiennes (‘Conclave’) and Daniel Craig (‘Queer’.)

The career resurgence of two popular actresses continues this awards season too, as Demi Moore - whose odds to win an Oscar for her role in ‘The Substance’ grew after her Golden Globe win - and Pamela Anderson both receiving nods for their recent works.
