Karla Sofía Gascón Lands Historic Golden Globe Nomination As First Out Trans Performer In Film Category


Karla Sofía Gascón has landed an historic Best Actress in a Motion Picture nomination at the Golden Globes for her performance in 'Emilia Pérez'.

She will compete against Amy Adams ( Nightbitch), Cynthia Erivo ( Wicked), Mikey Madison ( Anora), Demi Moore ( The Substance) and Zendaya ( Challengers). Elliot Page was nominated in the Musical and Comedy film category in 2007 for Juno. For Spanish actress Gascón, the nomination comes after she made history as one of four performers to share the Best Actress prize at the Cannes Film Festival earlier this year for Jacques Audiard’s Emilia Pé rez, in which she stars as a Mexican drug kingpin who transitions into a woman.
