Here are the nominees. Juliette Gariépy for Red Rooms Red Rooms is a cold-blooded thriller centred on fashion model Kelly-Anne, obsessed with a series of atrocious murders. The character doesn't show many emotions during the movie but disturbance is simmering under the surface, only to explode in both shocking and redeeming ways. A confronting part perfectly executed by Juliette Gariépy. Stephen Graham for Adolesence Everyone has been talking about that TV show given its subject matter. Stephen Graham not only played a lead part in those real-time episodes, he also co-wrote the script. Stellar job. Wagner Moura for The Secret Agent What makes Wagner Moura's performance remarkable in this movie is that he plays the same character for the whole movie only to play another at the end, with a completely different personality. His versatily as an actor was displayed in just one movie and it was very convincing. Andrew Garfield for After The Hunt Saying I didn't get into After The Hunt would be an understatement. But I did get into Andrew Garfield's performance, thanks to the apartment scene. He plays an unpleasant character that you feel you're not even allowed to like?! And in one scene, even though nothing was clarified, he managed to make you feel for him. Emma Stone for Bugonia Emma Stone is fucking amazing and should just get the Oscar every year. And the winner is Wagner Moura. Now I have to watch Narcos. #JujuAwards #ActorOfTheYear #JujuAwards2025 #BestOf2025]]> So far I was always a little contemptuous towards actors, because I thought screenwriting and directing were more important but without actors, you wouldn't have a movie, and an actor can save or sink a movie.

Here are the nominees.

Juliette Gariépy for Red Rooms

Red Rooms is a cold-blooded thriller centred on fashion model Kelly-Anne, obsessed with a series of atrocious murders. The character doesn't show many emotions during the movie but disturbance is simmering under the surface, only to explode in both shocking and redeeming ways. A confronting part perfectly executed by Juliette Gariépy.

Stephen Graham for Adolesence

Everyone has been talking about that TV show given its subject matter. Stephen Graham not only played a lead part in those real-time episodes, he also co-wrote the script. Stellar job.

Wagner Moura for The Secret Agent

What makes Wagner Moura's performance remarkable in this movie is that he plays the same character for the whole movie only to play another at the end, with a completely different personality. His versatily as an actor was displayed in just one movie and it was very convincing.

Andrew Garfield for After The Hunt

Saying I didn't get into After The Hunt would be an understatement. But I did get into Andrew Garfield's performance, thanks to the apartment scene. He plays an unpleasant character that you feel you're not even allowed to like?! And in one scene, even though nothing was clarified, he managed to make you feel for him.

Emma Stone for Bugonia

Emma Stone is fucking amazing and should just get the Oscar every year.

And the winner is Wagner Moura. Now I have to watch Narcos.

This year, I would like to introduce a new Juju Award: Actor of the Year. I wasn't big on actors until recently, when I discovered I could be sensitive to their charisma, their presence or, well, their acting! So as a result, I have decided to name my favourite actor for the past 5 years of the Juju Awards. Actor of the Year 2020 Rebecca Ferguson for Doctor Sleep Actor of the Year 2021 Rebecca Ferguson for Dune: Part One Actor of the Year 2022 Eryn Jean Norvill for The Picture Of Dorian Gray (That's actually a play, though some filming was involved!) Actor of the Year 2023 Emma Stone for Poor Things Actor of the Year 2024 Naomi Scott for Smile 2 Yes I gave Rebecca Ferguson two awards! What can I say, she killed both those parts and stole the show on both occasions! I'll be doing a specific post for 2025. #JujuAwards #ActorOfTheYear #JujuAwards2025 #BestOf2025]]> Onto cinema!
