Jesse Buckley in Oscar race, stands out for one reason

The name whose name is slowly and almost certainly moving towards the Oscar this year is Jesse Buckley.

She stands out from the crowd for one reason only. That is her acting. Jesse grew up through stage, singing and acting.

That is why she does not have to look for a separate door to enter the character. The character gradually comes and surrounds her.

This is exactly what happened in Chloe Zhao’s movie ‘Hamnet’, released in 2025.

In this film, Jessie seems to have dissolved herself into the existence of a grief-stricken mother while playing the role of Agnes Hathaway, wife of William Shakespeare.
