10Dafne Keen
Known For Logan (2017) & His Dark Materials (2019-2022)
Dafne Keen proved her dramatic skill correctly aside with her simmering depicting of Laura inLogan . She instantly became a favour actress to be vomit up in a younger role , making it unsurprising that she was pick for the TV show reboot of Philip Pullman’sHis Dark Materials . Keen was a safe choice for this show , but by no mean a imperfect one — she was perfect to play Lyra , also a curious and fierce character , in every way . Most of late , Keen appeared in thecontroversialStar WarsTV showThe Acolyte .
The Acolytedoes not do justice to Keen ’s talentswhen everyone has see her play the far more complex and excited roles of Laura and Lyra . Frankly , she has the skill position to win an Oscar — it ’s just a thing of engender the correct office . Keen has two upcoming movies ( one in pre- and one in post - production ) that could either be Brobdingnagian success or total flops . However , with her compounding of established fame and genuine natural endowment , she is likely to get her next amazing function before long .
9Tom Blyth
Known For The Hunger Games: The Ballad Of Songbirds & Snakes (2023) & Billy The Kid (2022-2024)
Tom Blyth gives a strong performance inThe Hunger Games : The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes , conceive that his character is completely unlikable and undergoing an arc that preludes him becoming a savage dictator . His Coriolanus Snow is poised , cunning , and vulnerable , helping the consultation understand how he becomes President Snow . Blyth also star in the bio - drama seriesBilly the Kidand one episode ofThe Gilded Age . Blyth now has a lot of upcoming task in development , embrace several dissimilar musical genre and specify him up to work with various raw directors .
While Blyth will take in valuable experience from all of them , his in - development remaking ofA Farewell to Armsseems like obvious Oscar bait . He probably wo n’t get ahead an Oscar for it , but he might learn more about the types of performances that are likely to get nominated and how to break the mould to become someone who wins . It might be a while for Blyth , but I think his stardom fromThe Hunger Gameswill set him on coursefor more potential Oscar - nominated movies .
8Erin Kellyman
Known For Solo: A Star Wars Story (2018) & The Green Knight (2021)
I still ca n’t conceive that Erin Kellyman was n’t appoint for her execution inThe Green Knight , no matter how abbreviated it was . Playing an ethereal , mistily supernatural maiden over in need of assistance from Dev Patel ’s Gawain , she require the scene with her implicit condemnation of his behavior . The Green Knightwas overleap by the Academy in general , so Kellyman ’s performance went unnoticed . However , it is completely characteristic of her power to limn characters representative of a bigger ethical debate .
Kellyman was on the button the antagonistThe Falcon and the Winter Soldierneeded , get some big scenes with Anthony Mackie that showcase the ideological differences between their two characters . Her persona inWillowtook up a couple of years ; thenWillowturned out to be one of theDisney+ TV display canceled too soon , waste clip she could have spent elsewhere . Kellyman now has some hopeful approaching projects , including the threequel28 Years Laterand Steve McQueen ’s fresh historical dramaBlitz . Depending on what the scripts give her to work with , she might seduce her first nomination soon .
7Charlie Bushnell
Known For Diary Of A Future President (2020-2021) & Percy Jackson And The Olympians (2023-Present)
I imagine that Charlie Bushnell give the inviolable performance of the young cast in the first season of Disney’sPercy Jackson and the Olympians . Percy and Annabeth are hard character to play with refinement because a deal of their responses are meant to be sarcastic , while Grover is a mostly well-disposed character . With Luke , Bushnell plausibly portrays him as Percy ’s first actual friend at Camp Half - origin , but people who know that he will be the rat ( which was pretty much everyone ) can feel the undercurrent tensions with his character , even then .
As much time as he spends solely focusing on Percy Jackson , he is becoming a better thespian , and can perhaps try for an Oscar competition subsequently .
Bushnell then entirely nails Luke ’s change in role in the final episode , and I am so activated to see more of his two - faced personality inPercy Jacksonseason 2 . Bushnell came toPercy Jacksonwith experience fromDiary of a Future Presidentand does n’t have anything else lined up in the coming geezerhood . As much metre as he spends solely focus onPercy Jackson , he is becoming a good actor , and can maybe stress for an Oscar contender later .

6Amir Wilson
Known For The Secret Garden (2020) & His Dark Materials (2019-2022)
Amir Wilson is the other half of the astoundingly good main duo inHis Dark Materials . A wad of the stellar execution is due to him and Keen have neat alchemy , but they both give perfect individual performance . Wilson was given a lot to work with and many challenges to live up to as Will Parry , who grapples with the complexities of responsibility and grief . It ’s awe-inspiring to watch him slowly become steadfastly protective of Lyra after being ab initio justificative ; he also has a expectant dynamic with Andrew Scott , who wager his beginner .
Wilson might not be so easily set up to get an Oscar nomination as Keen , but his confirmed succeeding task could be the start of a career trajectory that leads to the Oscars . For starters , he is appear inThe Return , Ralph Fiennes ' drama inspired byThe Odyssey , later this year . A weighty movie like this working with such A - listers could be the next footprint in Wilson ’s calling , garnering more attention from Hollywood ’s best manager .
Many show failed to supervene upon Game of Thrones due to the genre being too exchangeable or too different , a shortsighted account , and other diligence concerns .

5Bella Ramsey
Known For Game Of Thrones (2011-2019) & The Last Of Us (2023-Present)
Bella Ramsey shoot a line everyone away from their first shot inGame of Thrones , both in the genuine world and in the hall of House Mormont . Lady Lyanna Mormont , the 10 - class - old who find herself leading her house after most of her family line is kill , quickly became one of the show ’s best characters . Ramsey is amazing as the brutally straightforward yet lowly and intelligent young loss leader , and their career has only gotten good since then . Ramsey ’s next big matter wasThe Last of Us , the zombie Revelation of Saint John the Divine series in which they star alongside Pedro Pascal .
For their performance as Ellie , Ramsey gain a Primetime Emmy nomination and a Golden Globe nomination , basically the television set tantamount prize of an Oscar . Ramsey also has a crazy phone number of task coming up , proving that they are becoming one of the most sought - after actors in Hollywood . Ramsey is going to be competing with theHouse of the Dragoncast at the Golden Globes for the next few class , but still might win their first honor at this show before naturally progressing to the Oscars .
4Anna Sawai
Known For F9: The Fast Saga (2021) & Shogun (2024-Present)
BeforeShōgun , Anna Sawai look in some average but gratifying action pic , namely one jaunt with theFast & Furioussaga and the thrillerNinja Assassin . Her more critically merit - worthy labor was the drama seriesPachinko , the 2nd time of year of which is coming before long . However , the class of Sawai ’s vocation was undeniably changed once she appeared inShōgun , yield an unrivaled performance as the quietly intelligent and powerful Lady Mariko .
This public presentation unsurprisingly earned Sawai a Primetime Emmy nomination;Shōgunshould be considered for the next round of the Golden Globes . Sawai does n’t have anything else on her docket yet , althoughShōgunseason 2 is take place . While she may be taking a break after makingShōgun , Sawai has more than earned some options for fresh rolesthat will take her career to its next stagecoach .
3Emma D’Arcy
Known For Mothering Sunday (2021) & House Of The Dragon (2022-Present)
Emma D’Arcy and Olivia Cooke are dominatingHouse of the Dragon ; in D’Arcy ’s case , they are take the way as the de facto heroine Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen with a smoldering , reflective , and aroused public presentation . D’Arcy has already been nominated at the Golden Globes for playing Rhaenyraand is likely to be there again next twelvemonth . While they aviate under the radar with some romantic dramatic event before the acclaimed HBO serial , becoming the latest Targaryen poove directly launched them to widespread fame .
D’Arcy only hasHouse of the Dragonon their agenda for the next few yearsand may choose to concenter on that reach the demands of filming . However , ifHouse of the Dragonhas a strong termination thanGame of Thrones , D’Arcy may end up with even more opportunities in a few age . If they need to go back to making film and get the right role , their next project right afterHouse of the Dragoncould easy be their first Oscar nomination .
2Dominic Sessa
Known For The Holdovers (2023)
Dominic Sessa started his career at the top , gear up him up to meet all the regularly constitute director in Hollywood . The producers ofThe Holdoverslikely scouted young , unheard - of thespian to take on the main student function , which is howSessa ended up making his on - screen unveiling in a Best Picture nominee . He perhaps needed just a bit more destiny to have gotten a nomination for Best Supporting Actor this fourth dimension around — but he definitely came skinny .
Sessa is now run along up other movies , includingThe Big SickandThe Idea of Youwriter Michael Showalter’sOh . What . Fun.and the bio - dramaTowalongside several major A - listers . As both of these flick are in post - output , Sessa could do something else before long . He might need more clip working in Hollywood before he gets his first nomination , but he definitely has the potential , and it probably wo n’t take more than five years .
The Oscars is the most honored event in Hollywood , but in 95 years of running , it has yet to make several achievements into a reality .

1Stephanie Hsu
Known For Everything Everywhere All At Once (2022) & The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel (2017-2023)
I personally think that Stephanie Hsu should have won Best stand Actress forEverything Everywhere All at Once . Hsu look in thing likeShang - Chi and the Legend of the Ten RingsandThe Marvelous Mrs. Maiselbut was mostly overshadowed by the also talented doer playing the main grapheme . She became much more famous when she ended up in the hit multiverse adventure that became a Best Picture achiever . The dead chaotic and constantly fluctuating persona ofJobu Tupaki / Joy gave her all the opportunities she could desire for to show off her behave skill in a exclusive movie .
I think it ’s just a matter of time before another managing director has a crazy approximation for which Hsu is a stark match , and this cycle will be a winner for her .
Hsu only experience up to the mass she was starring aboard , who won three out of the four acting categories at the Oscars that year . I call back it ’s just a topic of prison term before another director has a sick idea for which Hsu is a perfect friction match , and this round will be a victor for her . For many would - be Oscar winner , it comes down to being pass the right scriptthat provide them the chance to shine and achieve the acknowledgement they merit .
