Paul Mescal

His lead role in BBC Film backed Aftersun has landed him his first ever Oscar nomination for Best Lead Actor and you can go right back to where it all began for Irish actor Paul Mescal on BBC iPlayer with his Bafta-winning performance in Normal People.

Colin Farrell

Colin Farrell features alongside Paul Mescal in the Best Lead Actor race. You'll find him in The North Water on BBC iPlayer, playing harpooner Henry Drax. During filming of the series, Farrell says he "did feel that death was just around the corner at any given time, that we were just one mistake away from someone falling into the Arctic sea and either very quickly getting hypothermia or sinking under the weight of the waterlogged costume."

Brendan Gleeson

Farrell's regular on-screen partner Brendan Gleeson is nominated for Best Supporting Actor at the 2023 Academy Awards and the Baftas but you can find him discussing a very different partnership on BBC iPlayer. State of The Union series two sees liberal campaigning Ellen ( Patricia Clarkson) dragging her traditional, self-made husband Scott (Gleeson) out of his comfort zone and into a hipster Connecticut coffee shop, where they have 10 minutes before their marriage counselling session to drink a coffee, gather their thoughts and argue.

Cate Blanchett

She's secured another Oscar nomination for Best Lead Actress for her role as a fictional composer but in Mrs. America on BBC iPlayer, Cate Blanchett stars in a stylish, treacherous true story about the women, fights, and fallout on both sides of America's sex equality war.

Michelle Williams

Her exploration of the relationship between a mother and son sees Michelle Williams nominated for Best Lead Actress in 2023. Watch Fosse/Verdon on BBC iPlater to see her explore an altogether quite different dynamic - the creative and romantic partnership of Bob Fosse and Gwen Verdon.

Steven Spielberg

A regular feature during awards season, Steven Spielberg finds himself nominated Best Director at the Oscars yet again in 2023 - and Best Original Screenplay at the Baftas and Oscars. You can watch his multi-Academy Award winner Schindler's List on BBC iPlayer - and his take on Roald Dahl's classic story, The BFG too. And there's always his talk through his greatest sci-fi movies for Radio 1's Movies That Made Me.
