Evelyn Wang

Some have said that Yeoh’s current nominations are legacy nods—a tacit agreement among the voting bodies to give Yeoh an award for her body of work across decades. But we defy anyone to tell us that Evelyn Wang in Everything Everywhere All at Once isn’t an incredible feat of charisma, acting, and stuntwork. Yeoh may deserve a legacy award, but this role stands on its own as a performance that is worthy of every accolade she’s gotten.
