Saoirse Ronan Will Submit ‘Blitz’ for Supporting Actress — Will She Make Oscar History as Youngest Double Acting Nominee?
Saoirse Ronan will submit her performance in "Blitz" for supporting actress, making her a potential double acting nominee.
Seven of the 12 previous actors went on to win for one of their nominated works (Fay Bainter, Teresa Wright, Barry Fitzgerald, Jessica Lange, Al Pacino, Holly Hunter and Jamie Foxx). Three women have won best actress for movies they also produced — Frances McDormand (“Nomadland”), Jessica Chastain (“The Eyes of Tammy Faye”) and Emma Stone (“Poor Things”). A double nom could also echo Winslet’s 2008 Oscar campaign when she was on track for two nods for “Revolutionary Road” and “The Reader” before the Academy ultimately moved her work for the latter film to lead after sweeping the supporting categories at the Golden Globes, SAG, and Critics Choice Awards.
