Elle Fanning did not expect her Oscar nomination morning to begin with tears but that’s exactly how it unfolded. When the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced the nominees for the 98th Academy Awards on Thursday, the 27‑year‑old actor discovered she had earned her first‑ever Oscar nomination, recognized in the Best Supporting Actress category for her performance in Sentimental Value.
The news arrived quietly, without red carpets or speeches, catching her completely off guard. The shock left her emotional, overwhelmed and struggling to process the moment.
Sentimental Value earns Elle Fanning her first Oscar nod
According to Money Control, Fanning was at home when the nominations were announced. Rather than issuing a formal statement, she shared a screenshot from a FaceTime call capturing her unfiltered reaction. The image showed her in tears while speaking with Sentimental Value director Joachim Trier and his wife, Helle Bendixen Trier a moment that perfectly reflected the depth of her surprise and gratitude.
