Odessa A’zion Receives Actors Award Nomination as ‘Marty Supreme’ Breakout

Fresh off a viral red-carpet moment, the Marty Supreme standout is turning awards-season buzz into wider recognition.

Overview

  • Odessa A’zion said she woke up Wednesday to news of an Actors Award nomination and a congratulatory call from Timothée Chalamet.
  • In Josh Safdie’s film, she plays Rachel Mizler opposite Chalamet’s Marty Mauser, a role she has called a dream part.
  • The A24 release opened on Christmas Day and has three Golden Globe nominations that have elevated her profile.
  • After an interview about whether her curls were a wig went viral, A’zion clarified the LA premiere look was a wig and the New York look was her natural hair, adding she is careful about spending early in her career.
