The 30th annual Hollywood edition of Vanity Fair magazine, released this Wednesday (21), brings together 11 stars who stood out this year. Names like Lily Gladstone, Pedro Pascal, Greta Lee and Natalie Portman appear in the special.
The shoot was directed by photographer and filmmaker Gordon von Steiner and brought together, as the publication reported in the text accompanying the shoot, “vibrant and totally different stars”.
Check out the list of 11 personalities chosen by the magazine below:
Bradley Cooper
Bradley Cooper, who plays Leonard Bernstein in “Maestro”, achieved, for the second time, a considerable volume of Oscar nominations in a film directed and starring him.
Like “A Star Is Born”, his directorial debut, “Maestro” was nominated for awards such as Best Film, Actress (Carey Mulligan), Actor (Bradley Cooper) and Adapted Screenplay.
Natalie Portman
Like Bradley Cooper, Natalie Portman also stepped out of her comfort zone with “Secrets of a Scandal”, a film she stars in and produces. The plot is inspired by a real case of a 34-year-old woman who had a relationship with a 13-year-old man. She goes to prison, but when she is released she marries him.
The film is the first produced by MountainA, a production company founded by Portman in 2021.
Pedro Pascal
Actor Pedro Pascal, who starred in the first season of “The Last Of Us”, is also in the magazine's special. Before the series, the Chilean actor had already stood out in roles in “Game Of Thrones”, “Narcos” and “The Mandalorian”.
He was named one of the 100 most influential people in the world in 2023 by Time magazine and was the first Latin American man nominated for Best Actor at the Emmy Awards. Pascal is confirmed in the cast of the film “Fantastic Four” as Mr. Fantastic.
Colman Domingo
Another actor with a long career who shined this year was Colman Domingo, who plays civil rights activist Bayard Rustin. For his role in “Rustin”, the actor was nominated for an Oscar for Best Actor.
He is also part of the cast of the new musical version of “The Color Purple”, which recently hit theaters.
Domingo became known for “Fear The Walking Dead” and has roles in “Euphoria”, “Lincoln”, “Selma”, “If Beale Street Could Talk” and “Candyman”.
Jodie Comer
Jodie Comer, described by Vanity Fair as a “brilliant talent of the new generation”, starred in “The Bikeriders”, a film about bikers that stars Austin Butler and Tom Hardy.
The actress won the Tony Awards for Best Actress for her performance in the Broadway musical “Prima Facie.”
Lily Gladstone
Lily Gladstone is the first Native American actress to win a Golden Globe and was also the first to be nominated for an Oscar. She became a favorite for the Best Actress award for her role in “Killers of the Flower Moon”, the new film by Martin Scorsese.
Greta Lee
Greta Lee, 40, has a long career, but rose to fame with her performance as the protagonist in “Past Lives”, which is competing for the Oscar for Best Film.
The actress, who starred in “Morning Show” as Stella Bak, was nominated for the Best Actress award at the Golden Globes.
Charles Melton
Charles Melton, who gained fame as Reggie from “Riverdale”, stood out this year for starring, with Julianne Moore, in the film “Secrets of a Scandal”, which also features the acting and production of Natalie Portman.
Da'vine Joy Randolph
A true collector of Best Supporting Actress awards, Da'vine Joy Randolph won at the Bafta, Golden Globe, Critics Choice Awards and National Board of Review.
What gave the actress from the US state of Pennsylvania stardom was her performance in “The Rejected”, a film that follows the misadventure of a bad-tempered teacher at a prestigious American school.
Jenna Ortega
Notable as the protagonist of the series “Wandinha”, Jenna Ortega shone in 2023 in “Miller's Girl” and “Pânico 6”.
The actress was also confirmed in the role of Astrid, the daughter of Winona Ryder, who plays the character Lydia Deetz, in “Beetlejuice 2”, the sequel to the classic released 36 years ago, “The Ghosts Have Fun”, by Tim Burton.
Barry Keoghan
Notable for his performance in “The Banshees of Inisherin”, which earned him the Bafta for Best Supporting Actor and nominations for an Oscar and a Golden Globe in 2023, Barry Keoghan continued to shine.
He stars in “Saltburn”, a film that went viral due to its nude scenes, and is also part of the cast of “Masters of the Air”, a new series by Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks about the Second World War.
