Like Sandra Hüller, we have another potential contender for a double nomination in Supporting Actress, as the new Oscar rules finally allow for an actor to receive more than one nod in a single category. Penélope Cruz, already a previous winner in this category (for 2008's Vicky Cristina Barcelona), has two very strong chances in upcoming films: The Invite (A24) and La bola negra (Netflix). She also might have The Bunker, where she co-stars with husband and fellow supporting Oscar winner Javier Bardem, but without a distributor or knowledge of her likely category placement, we'll stick with the two known quantities, both of which I've seen.
