Excited to be among the finalists, she said, in an interview shortly after the list was released, that she already feels like a winner and even praised a direct competitor to the statuette: Fernanda Torres.
Madison mentioned the Brazilian, protagonist of “I’m Still Here”, when asked if there was anyone this awards season that she hadn’t met yet and would like to meet backstage at the Oscars. “I didn’t have the chance to meet Fernanda [Torres]. She is such an amazing and beautiful actress. What a talent,” he told Variety magazine.
Mikey Madison emerged in Hollywood with the series “Better Things“. The production was launched between 2016 and 2022, with her playing one of the daughters of the protagonist, played by actress and comedian Pamela Adlon. She also participated in “Once Upon a Time in… Hollywood (2019)”, by Quentin Tarantino, playing one of the followers of the killer Charles Manson’s sect.
Directed by filmmaker Sean Baker, “Anora” also competes in the Best Film category, alongside the work of Walter Salles. The film tells the story of a sex worker (Madison) who impulsively decides to marry a young Russian man. However, as the groom’s family begins to investigate her, her dream of a happy ending is threatened.
