Si Paul Mescal es el hombre del año, Michaela Coel tiene que ser la mujer del año. Si algo me gusta de Coel y de su trabajo en esta serie es que se nota que ha hecho lo que le ha dado la gana, y se lo ha pasado bomba. Ha escrito una serie brillante, la ha dirigido aún mejor, y se ha dado a sí misma el papel protagonista para petarlo con un personaje lleno de altibajos y contradicciones. El hecho de retratar todo el proceso de recuperación de una personaje después de sufrir una agresión sexual, le permite sacar a la luz una inmensa cantidad de registros, y lucirse en todos y cada uno de ellos.- Actor

Está ya todo más que dicho con respecto a Paul Mescal. Todos tenemos claro que es una de las grandes revelaciones de este 2020, gracias a su magnífica interpretación en Normal People. En ella, desmonta un personaje que suele ser cliché, para traerlo a un terreno mucho más humano, sincero y real. Connell es un chico con depresión e inseguridades, y Paul Mescal lo hace creíble. Yo veo Normal People y me creo que Connell y Marianne existan, y eso es gracias al increíble trabajo de Paul Mescal y Daisy Edgar-Jones como actores.- Actor

Jack Dylan Grazer was born in Los Angeles, California, to parents Angela LaFever and Gavin Grazer.
With his disarming charm, undeniable talent, and infectious energy, Jack Dylan Grazer has emerged as one of the most exciting young actors working today. Grazer's rise to fame began with his memorable portrayal of the hypochondriacal Eddie Kaspbrak in the supernatural horror phenomenon "It" (2017) and its sequel "It: Chapter Two" (2019). These performances, based on the iconic Stephen King novel, showcased Grazer's ability to seamlessly blend comedic timing with genuine vulnerability, endearing him to audiences worldwide.
His role as Freddy Freeman in the DC Extended Universe blockbuster "Shazam!" (2019) further demonstrated Grazer's versatility. He brought heart and humor to the character, a foster child who becomes bestowed with the powers of a superhero. Grazer's undeniable chemistry with his castmates added an extra layer of joy and authenticity to this beloved comic book adaptation.

Grazer's work ethic and commitment to character development are evident in every project he takes on. He is not an actor who rests on his success; he actively seeks out challenges that push him creatively. The thriller "Don't Tell a Soul" (2020) saw Grazer in a more sinister light, showcasing his ability to portray a broader range of complex emotions.
Beyond acting, Grazer is a passionate advocate for anti-bullying causes, serving as a global ambassador for the non-profit organization Stomp Out Bullying.

His upcoming roles further cement his status as an actor with incredible range. Grazer is set to voice Barney in the iconic animated reboot of "Barney & Friends" and star opposite Rachel Zegler in "The Shave" (anticipated release in 2024). This period drama based on real-life events is sure to offer Grazer another opportunity to showcase his depth and ability to embody multifaceted characters.
Still in his youth, Grazer has already achieved a level of success that many actors take decades to reach. With his infectious personality, undeniable talent, and willingness to take on challenging projects, Jack Dylan Grazer continues to captivate audiences and critics alike. His dedication to his craft, combined with a natural screen presence, suggest that his brightest days are still ahead of him.Jack Dylan Grazer - We Are Who We Are
Un chico de 14 años hijo de dos militares lesbianas, con indicios de tener alguna enfermedad mental, y viviendo en una base militar estadounidense ubicada en Italia. Ese es el personaje que interpreta Jack Dylan Grazer en We Are Who We Are, la serie de Luca Guadagnino. Me atrevería a decir que la interpretación que hace Grazer es una de las más personales y complicadas del año. La gestualidad, las miradas, todo lo que construye a través del personaje es asombroso. Y a veces resulta insoportable, pero forma parte del personaje, y de lo que quiere transmitir.- Actress

Elena Irureta was born on 30 July 1955 in Zumaya, Guipúzcoa, País Vasco, Spain. She is an actress and director, known for Patria (2020), El comisario (1999) and Flowers from Another World (1999).Elena Irureta - Patria
Elena Irureta es otra de esas grandes revelaciones. A sus 65 años, y después de una inmensa lista de personajes secundarios a sus espaldas, Irureta irrumpe en la ficción española con uno de los personajes más entrañables que he visto jamás en una serie: Bittori. Ella es el corazón de la serie, por lo que todos empatizamos con lo que se está contando. Al igual que pasa con la mayoría de elementos de la serie, Elena no se limita a interpretar a una señora cualquiera, sino que pone todo su empeño en representar a una señora vasca lo más real posible. A pesar del detalle de no estar rodada en euskera, el resto de detalles son los que hacen a Patria grande y creíble.- Actress

Daniela Santiago - Veneno
Esta lista está repleta de actores y actrices revelación, y me parece una gran noticia. Es agradable cunado las series se atreven a buscar caras nuevas para sus protagonistas, y más en el caso de Daniela Santiago. Todos estamos de acuerdo que Veneno es el gran fenómeno del año y, por supuesto, Daniela ha aportado mucho a la serie. Interpreta una versión de Cristina muy potente, con una presencia escénica arrolladora, pero sobre todo con una gran humanidad en ella. Sin ser un calco de Cristina, acaba retratando todo lo que la definía a ella como persona.- Actress

Born in 1998 and raised in London, Daisy trained with the National Youth Theatre before landing her first professional job at 17, playing the regular role of Olivia in the returning British series Cold Feet alongside James Nesbitt and Hermione Norris for ITV. Daisy has since gone on to build a varied screen career as well as working on stage in London.Daisy Edgar-Jones - Normal People
No me voy a cansar de reivindicar el papel de Daisy Edgar-Jones en Normal People. Me da la sensación de que la nominación de Paul Mescal al Emmy la ha hecho algo de sombra a ella, y no es justo. Ambos hacen un trabajo brillante, y más siendo el primer papel importante que hacen. La sensibilidad que le aporta Edgar-Jones a Marianne, que podía haber sido un personaje odioso, es sensacional.- Actress

Cate Blanchett was born on May 14, 1969 in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, to June (Gamble), an Australian teacher and property developer, and Robert DeWitt Blanchett, Jr., an American advertising executive, originally from Texas. She has an older brother and a younger sister. When she was ten years old, her 40-year-old father died of a sudden heart attack. Her mother never remarried, and her grandmother moved in to help her mother.
Cate graduated from Australia's National Institute of Dramatic Art in 1992 and, in a little over a year, had won both critical and popular acclaim. On graduating from NIDA, she joined the Sydney Theatre Company's production of Caryl Churchill's "Top Girls", then played Felice Bauer, the bride, in Tim Daly's "Kafka Dances", winning the 1993 Newcomer Award from the Sydney Theatre Critics Circle for her performance. From there, Blanchett moved to the role of Carol in David Mamet's searing polemic "Oleanna", also for the Sydney Theatre Company, and won the Rosemont Best Actress Award, her second award that year. She then co-starred in the ABC Television's prime time drama Heartland (1994), again winning critical acclaim. In 1995, she was nominated for Best Female Performance for her role as Ophelia in the Belvoir Street Theatre Company's production of "Hamlet". Other theatre credits include Helen in the Sydney Theatre Company's "Sweet Phoebe", Miranda in "The Tempest" and Rose in "The Blind Giant is Dancing", both for the Belvoir Street Theatre Company. In other television roles, Blanchett starred as Bianca in ABC's Bordertown (1995), as Janie Morris in G.P. (1989) and in ABC's popular series Police Rescue (1994). She made her feature film debut in Paradise Road (1997).
Cate married writer Andrew Upton in 1997. She had met him a year earlier on a movie set, and they didn't like each other at first. He thought she was aloof, and she thought he was arrogant, but then they connected over a poker game at a party, and she went home with him that night. Three weeks later he proposed marriage and they quickly married before she went off to England to play her breakthrough role in films: the title character in Elizabeth (1998) for which she won numerous awards for her performance, including the Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Drama. Cate was also nominated for an Academy Award for the role but lost out to Gwyneth Paltrow. 2001 was a particularly busy year, with starring roles in Bandits (2001), The Shipping News (2001), Charlotte Gray (2001) and playing Elf Queen Galadriel in the "Lord Of The Rings" trilogy. She also gave birth to her first child, son Dashiell, in 2001. In 2004, she gave birth to her second son Roman.
Also, in 2004, she played actress Katharine Hepburn in Martin Scorsese's film The Aviator (2004), for which she received an Academy Award as Best Supporting Actress. Two years later, she received an Academy Award nomination as Best Supporting Actress for playing a teacher having an affair with an underage student in Notes on a Scandal (2006). In 2007, she returned to the role that made her a star in Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007). It earned her an Oscar nomination as Best Actress. She was nominated for another Oscar that same year as Best Supporting Actress for playing Bob Dylan in I'm Not There (2007). In 2008, she gave birth to her third child, son Ignatius. She and her husband became artistic directors of the Sydney Theatre Company, choosing to spend more time in Australia raising their three sons. She also purchased a multi-million dollar home in Sydney, Australia and named it Bulwarra and made extensive renovations to it. Because of her life in Australia, her film work became sporadic, until Woody Allen cast her in the title role in Blue Jasmine (2013), which won her the Academy Award as Best Actress. She ended her job as artistic director of the Sydney Theatre Company, while her husband continued there for two more years before he too resigned.
In 2015, she adopted her daughter Edith in her father's homeland of the United States. That same year, she and her husband sold their multi-million dollar home in Australia at a profit and moved to America. Reasons varied from her wanting to work more in America to wanting to familiarize herself with her late father's American heritage. She played the title role of Carol (2015), a 1950s American housewife in a lesbian affair with a younger woman, for which she received an Oscar nomination as Best Actress. While most actresses might slow down in their forties, Blanchett did the opposite by stretching her boundaries even further, such as when she played 13 different characters in Manifesto (2015) and then making her Broadway debut in 2017 in "The Present", which is her husband's adaptation of Chekhov's play "Platonov" for which she earned a Tony nomination as Best Actress in a Play. Also in 2017, she was selected for the highest honor in her birth country: the Companion of the Order of Australia (AC).Cate Blanchett - Mrs. America
Para muchos Cate Blanchett es la absoluta reina del año televisivo. Y lo entiendo. En Mrs. America consigue algo muy complicado, y es que empaticemos con ella. Su personaje, Phyllis Schlafly, que es una de las mujeres oponentes a la ratificación de de la Enmienda de Igualdad de Derechos, podría ser la villana de cualquier otra serie. Pero aquí es la antiheroína, y eso a Blanchett se le da de escándalo.- Actor

Award-winning actor Mark Ruffalo was born on November 22, 1967, in Kenosha, Wisconsin, of humble means to father Frank Lawrence Ruffalo, a construction painter and Marie Rose (Hebert), a stylist and hairdresser; his father's ancestry is Italian and his mother is of half French-Canadian and half Italian descent. Mark moved with his family to Virginia Beach, Virginia, where he lived out most of his teenage years. Following high school, Mark moved with his family to San Diego and soon migrated north, eventually settling in Los Angeles.
Mark first took classes at the Stella Adler Conservatory and subsequently co-founded the Orpheus Theatre Company, an Equity-Waiver establishment, where he worked in nearly every capacity. From acting, writing, directing and producing to running the lights and building sets while building his resume.
Moving into film and TV, Mark's inauspicious movie debut was the drifter role of Christian in the horror opus Mirror Mirror 2: Raven Dance (1994) and returned to the film series in the role of Joey with Mirror Mirror 3: The Voyeur (1995). He continued on through the 1990's rather indistinctly with more secondary roles in the horror film The Dentist (1996) starring madman Corbin Bernsen; an amusing perf in the obscure dramedy The Last Big Thing (1996); a third billed role in the Jerry Stiller/Anne Meara bickering senior comedy A Fish in the Bathtub (1998); and the war drama Ceremony... The Ritual of Love (1976) directed by Ang Lee.
Bartending for nearly nearly a decade to make ends meet and discouraged enough to give it up, a chance meeting and resulting collaboration with playwright/screenwriter Kenneth Lonergan approaching the millennium changed everything. Ruffalo won NY success in Lonergan's 1996 off-Broadway play "This Is Our Youth," a story about troubled young adults. This led to his male lead in Lonergan's Oscar-winning film drama You Can Count on Me (2000), playing the ne'er-do-well brother of Laura Linney. The performance drew rave reviews and invited comparisons to an early Marlon Brando.
Ruffalo never looked back. Notable roles in The Last Castle (2001), XX/XY (2002), and Windtalkers (2002) followed, although in 2002 Ruffalo was diagnosed with an acoustic neuroma, a type of brain tumor. Though the tumor was benign, the resulting surgery led to a period of partial facial paralysis, from which he fully recovered. In 2003, Ruffalo scored leading roles alongside two popular female stars, playing a police detective opposite Meg Ryan in In the Cut (2003) and the love interest of Gwyneth Paltrow in the comedy View from the Top (2003).
Though both films were high-profile box office disappointments, Ruffalo went on to four notable (if highly disparate) films in 2004 -- We Don't Live Here Anymore (2004), Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind (2004), 13 Going on 30 (2004), and Collateral (2004) -- which solidified his ability to be both a popular leading man and an acclaimed ensemble player in either comedy or drama.
After 2004, Ruffalo was consistently at work, with leads in popular Hollywood films and independent productions that continued to solidify him as one of film's most consistently strong actors: Just Like Heaven (2005), All the King's Men (2006), Zodiac (2007), Reservation Road (2007), and The Brothers Bloom (2008). He also made his Broadway debut as Moe Axelrod in the play "Awake and Sing!"
In 2010 Ruffalo achieved something of a breakthrough, by directing the indie film Sympathy for Delicious (2010), which won him the Special Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival, and co-starring as the sperm-donor father to lesbian couple Annette Bening and Julianne Moore in The Kids Are All Right (2010). His role in the idiosyncratic domestic comedy/drama earned him Academy Award, Independent Spirit Award, Screen Actors Guild, and BAFTA nominations for Best Supporting Actor. He went on to earn two more Best Supporting Actor nominations as an Olympic-winning wrestling champion in Foxcatcher (2014) and as a journalist working to uncover the Catholic Church sex abuse scandal in Spotlight (2015). In 2017, the actor returned to Broadway in Arthur Miller's "The Price."
High-profile roles in Martin Scorsese's Shutter Island (2010) and Longeran's long-delayed film Margaret (2011) followed before Ruffalo's appearance as Dr. Bruce Banner, aka The Hulk, in Joss Whedon's movie blockbuster The Avengers (2012). Garnering highly positive reviews for a role in which actors Eric Bana and Edward Norton could not find success in previous films made Ruffalo a box office action star in addition to a critically-acclaimed actor. He returned to the Banner/Hulk role frequently in such Marvel movies as Iron Man 3 (2013), Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015), Thor: Ragnarok (2017), Avengers: Infinity War (2018), Captain Marvel (2019) and Avengers: Endgame (2019),
Reunited with former co-star Gwyneth Paltrow in the sex-addiction comedy-drama Thanks for Sharing (2012), he went on to earn a Golden Globe nomination for playing a bipolar Dad in Infinitely Polar Bear (2014). Ruffalo also took on the lead in Ryan Murphy's adaptation of Larry Kramer's AIDS-drama play The Normal Heart (2014) and earned a SAG Award and Emmy Nomination. He later took home the Emmy playing twin brothers, one a paranoid schizophrenic, in I Know This Much Is True (2020).
Ruffalo has been married to actress Sunrise Coigney since 2000; the couple has three children, two sons and a daughter.Mark Ruffalo - I Know This Much Is True
¿No querías Mark Ruffalo? Pues toma dos tazas. Al contrario que la anterior, Mark Ruffalo sí fue galardonado este año el Emmy como mejor actor principal de miniserie por su participación en La innegable verdad. En ella, interpreta a dos hermanos gemelos, donde el drama es el principal ingrediente. La innegable verdad cuenta una historia muy lacrimógena, y Ruffalo sabe manejarla de maravilla, consiguiendo dos interpretaciones increíbles y únicas.- Producer

Laura Jeanne Reese Witherspoon was born on March 22, 1976 in New Orleans, Louisiana to Betty Witherspoon, a registered nurse & John Draper Witherspoon, a military surgeon. Reese spent the first 4 years of her life in Wiesbaden, Hesse, Germany, where her father served as a lieutenant colonel in the US Army reserves. Shortly after, the family moved back to the USA & settled in Nashville, Tennessee.
Reese was introduced to the entertainment industry at a very early age. At age 7, she began modeling. This led to appearances on several local television commercials. At age 11, she placed first in a Ten-State Talent Fair.
In 1990, she landed her first major acting role in Robert Mulligan's The Man in the Moon (1991). Her role as a 14-year old tomboy earned her rave reviews. Roles in bigger films such as Jack the Bear (1993) and A Far Off Place (1993) followed shortly after.
Following high school graduation in 1994 from Harpeth Hall, a Nashville all girls school, Reese decided to put her acting career on hold and attend Stanford University where she would major in English literature. However, her collegiate plans were shortly dashed when she accepted roles to star in two major motion pictures: Fear (1996), alongside Mark Wahlberg, and Freeway (1996) with Kiefer Sutherland. Although neither film was a huge box-office success, they did help to establish Reese as a rising starlet in Hollywood and open the door for bigger and better film roles. Those bigger roles came in movies such as Pleasantville (1998), Election (1999) and Cruel Intentions (1999).
Her breakthrough role came as Elle Woods in the 2001 comedy, Legally Blonde (2001). The movie was huge box-office smash and established Reese as one of the top female draws in Hollywood. The next year, she scored a follow-up hit with Sweet Home Alabama (2002), which went on to gross over $100 million dollars at the box office. In 2006, she took home the best actress Oscar for her role as June Carter Cash in the Johnny Cash biopic, Walk the Line (2005). On the late 2000s and early 2010s, Reese continued to star in more romantic comedies, such as Four Christmases (2008) and How Do You Know (2010). In December 2010, she received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. In the year 2014, she produced both Gone Girl (2014) and Wild (2014), for which she got nominated for best actress Oscar again for her role as Cheryl Strayed.Reese Witherspoon - Little Fires Everywhere
Una de las mayores injusticias que hemos presenciado este año es la no-nominación de Reese Whiterspoon al Emmy por Little Fires Everywhere. Al contrario que su compañera de reparto Kerry Washington, Whiterspoon no consiguió la nominación por ninguna de las tres series por las que optaba a ello: Big Little Lies, The Morning Show y Little Fires Everywhere. Y quizá ahí estuvo el problema, en la división de votos, porque está fantástica en las tres. Y aunque soy muy fan de Madeline de Big Little Lies, creo que Elena de Little Fires Everywhere era la que merecía un reconocimiento. Así que aquí estamos nosotros para dárselo.- Antony Starr is a New Zealand actor best known for his starring role as Homelander in Amazon Prime Video's original series The Boys, which is based on the comic book series of the same name. In New Zealand, he is best known for his dual role as twins Jethro and Van West in Outrageous Fortune and Billy Newwood in Without a Paddle. He was the lead character, Lucas Hood, in the four-season run of Banshee.Antony Starr - The Boys
Si algo nos gustó de la primera temporada de The Boys fue el increíble trabajo de Antony Starr como Patriota. En esta segunda, los creadores se han dado cuenta de que es su mejor baza y la han explotado al máximo. La facilidad que tiene Starr para transmitir confianza o maldad con solo una mirada o un gesto es asombrosa. Y por eso se merece estar en este ranking, porque aunque no sea la típica interpretación nominable, hay que reconocerle a Antony Starr su talento.
