Veteran Actresses Vie for Comeback Oscars in Eclectic Ensemble

In a surprising turn of events, the 2025 Oscar race has a new contender in the form of A24's 'Marty Supreme'. The film, which had its premiere at the New York Film Festival just last month, is now generating significant awards buzz, with many predicting it could earn multiple nominations.

At the heart of the film is Timothée Chalamet, who delivers a standout performance as Marty Mauser, a volatile shoe salesman who becomes consumed by his pursuit of glory in the world of table tennis. Chalamet's work has already earned him two best actor nominations in the past, and a third nod for 'Marty Supreme' could make him the second-youngest best actor winner in history.

Adding to the film's awards potential is the return of Gwyneth Paltrow to the Oscar race. The actress, who last won the best actress award 27 years ago for 'Shakespeare in Love', delivers a powerful supporting turn that could mark her first nomination since that historic win.
