The Academy Awards are this Sunday and it’s actually been a great year for film and particularly actors. So many of them have been recognized with nominations or wins, between the Oscars and the SAG Awards, not to mention BAFTA, Golden Globes, Critics Choice, Gotham and Independent Spirit Awards.
But with every great performance honored by a major group, there are so many more that are deserving, but seem to elude awards recognition. So going off the four existing acting categories, I wanted to suggest some other names from the year 2022 that deserve a look. And the best part is, they’re all currently available to stream so you can check them out yourself.
Still, I will always wonder how things might have turned out differently if this charming Tom Hanks-starrer had opened just a few weeks earlier. Regardless, the movie was a box office success and a big crowd-pleaser, and that’s no small thing. It is also a film I think people will look back on as a major turning point when talking about the career of Treviño, the wonderful Mexican actor who plays Marisol, the patient neighbor of Hanks’ cranky title character.
Pascal, however, gave a performance of pure delight in the woefully undersung meta-comedy “The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent.” While he’s currently on a roll caring for lovable young wards on TV between “The Mandalorian” and “The Last of Us,” my favorite pairing of the past year was watching him pal around with Nicolas Cage . Pascal played billionaire Javi Gutierrez, a Cage superfan who pays the actor $1 million to appear at his birthday party and gets to live out his dream bromance.
