Is Angelina Jolie Making a Comeback in the Movie Industry? Breaking the 14 Years Hiatus for Oscar Nominations
A few days back, the internet was discussing the plot, twist, and portrayals of the 2010 action thriller movie, Salt. Angelina Jolie got immense praise for her role, saving the movie for the audience. However, nobody could have guessed that this would be probably the last time they would see the queen’s acting. But, she remained active in her directorial journey.
Angelina Jolie’s career has always been a testament to versatility and excellence. She is known as one of the most prolific and acclaimed actresses in Hollywood. Her performances left an indelible mark on audiences worldwide. She also got an Oscar for her role in the movie, “Girl, Interrupted (1999).”
In 2024, Jolie is returning to the big screen and is set to make it a memorable one. In the upcoming year, she is cast for two captivating upcoming movies. She’s reprising her voice role as Master Tigress in the sequel of “Kung Fu Panda 4.”
Additionally, she is stepping into the shoes of opera singer Maria Callas for her role in the biopic “Maria,” directed by Pablo Larraín.
According to movie critics and fans, movies directed by Pablo Larraín have a remarkable track record of securing Oscar nominations. For instance, Natalie Portman won nominations for her role in “Jackie,” the biopic on Jackie Kennedy. Moreover, Kristen Stewart received recognition for her portrayal of Princess Diana in “Spencer.”
The storyline of the movie is written by Steven Knight, famously known for his work in “Peaky Blinders.” The biopic will unravel the final years of Maria Callas’ life, highlighting her residence in Paris in the 1970s. Movie enthusiasts agree on the fact that this role promises to relive the actress’ fame, somewhat faded by the 14-year pause.
According to critics, if Jolie manages to deliver the powerful performance she is recognized for, she will surely grab the Oscar nomination once again. She couldn’t win the “Best Actress” nomination of Oscar for her role in “Challenging”. However, fans have plenty of reasons to categorize Jolie as a strong contender for a Best Actress nomination at the 2025 Oscars.
