Julianne Moore and Tilda Swinton Will Both Campaign for Lead Actress Oscars for ‘The Room Next Door’ (EXCLUSIVE)


Julianne Moore and Tilda Swinton will both submit for the lead actress Oscars category for 'The Room Next Door.'

The film is adapted from Sigrid Nunez’s novel “What Are You Going Through” and tells the story of two women — war correspondent Martha, played by Swinton, and author Ingrid, portrayed by Moore — who reunite after many years under emotionally charged circumstances. Potential contenders include Karla Sofía Gascón (“Emilia Pérez”), Angelina Jolie (“Maria”), Marianne Jean-Baptiste (“Hard Truths”), Nicole Kidman (“Babygirl”), Mikey Madison (“Anora”) and Demi Moore (“The Substance”). Additionally, Sony Classics will need to balance its resources, as the studio is also backing other films with strong female performances, including Saoirse Ronan in the Sundance breakout recovery drama “The Outrun” and Fernanda Torres in the critically acclaimed Brazilian political thriller “I’m Still Here.”
