NEW YORK, January 23. /TASS/. Russian actor Yura Borisov has been nominated for an Oscar award for his supporting role in American director Sean Baker's Anora (2024). The event is being broadcast on the website of the US Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

Borisov was previously nominated for a Screen Actors Guild Award for his work in Anora and competed for a Golden Globe in the Best Supporting Actor category.
