WHO SHOULD BE THE NEXT AMY MADIGAN?
ELISABETH SHUE in Leaving Las Vegas (1995). What would it take to get her a comeback role?
We've spent the last couple of weeks bsessing over a question from a reader (thanks, Brian!) and we got so into discussing it at TFE HQ that we asked all of you to vote on the same question. The Team and Readers were unaware of each others vote totals during voting so nobody was influencing anyone. We've poured over the ballots that came in to suss out your passions and determine rankings. In honor of this new film year, 2026, we'll share the twenty-six actresses you're collectively rooting hardest for in terms of an Oscar comeback after just one nomination twenty or more years ago. We've included some quotes from your ballots too and hope you enjoy and continue the discussion. After the list, some fun stats. God, we love actresses!
YOUR TOP TWENTY-SIX
just-missed: Lena Olin & Candice Bergen were on as many or more ballots than Elisabeth Shue but weren't as highly ranked on the ballots they did appear on. They almost made it.
And a reader quote I just love to kick things off...
I feel like the Suppporting Actresses I picked (Chloë Sevigny, Juliette Lewis, Toni Collette & Uma Thurman) might one day win for Lead and the Lead Actresses I selected (Diane Lane, Kristin Scott Thomas, Stockard Channing & Catherine Deneuve) might one day end up winning for Supporting.
-Tom.
I love this quote because doesn't it feel like the likeliest truth ... in the big world of "if" we're discussing. The Oscars never play out, historically, in exactly the way one might surmise, even if they offer few surprises in individual years.

Up Next: Unknown
Hayek was definitely the right actress at the right time for a Frida biopic but her subsequent career has been kind of all over the place. What kind of role could bring about a return?
Rachel Griffiths in HILARY & JACKIE

Up Next: Unknown
While she still works, she's been low-profile (at least in the US) for a longtime now. Isn't it time we had another wave of Aussie films with crossover success? That trend in the early to mid 1990s gave us so much life and stretched on with blessings for a couple of decades aftewards given the international careeers it spawned or boosted.

Closest She's Come Since?: N/A
Undeappreciated Genius: Bound (1996)
Up Next: Unknown but how come she and her Oscar nominated sister Meg Tilly never co-star together?
Tilly is so rich that she probably doesn't care but still. It hurts to think of the movies that could have been given her singular screen presence.
Diane Lane in UNFAITHFUL
19 Diane Lane
61 years old. 119 points. Placed on 20.5% of your ballots. Most frequent rank on those ballots: #3
Breakthrough: A Little Romance (1979)

Next Up: The Exorcist (2027) with Scarlett Johansson
If Diane Lane ever gets a showcase as meaty as Unfaithful again, we suspect she could win. She's been a very consistent actress for over 40 years now. Where is the next Unfaithful?

YOUR TOP TEN
Juliette Lewis in CAPE FEAR
10 Juliette Lewis -previously discussed
52 years old. 194 points . On 32.1% of ballots. Most frequent rank on those ballots: #5
Breakthrough and Only Oscar Nomination: Cape Fear (1991)
Closest She's Come Since?: Conviction (2010)
Underappreciated Genius: Natural Born Killers (1994) - Venice Win
Career Haul: Only that Venice win among major prizes. Extremely underrewarded for her gifts!
Recent Highlight: The Thicket (2022)
Up Next: Jesus Land (2026)
Lewis also made the Team Experience top ten and has been on a hot creative streak the past handful of years with one strong performance after another -- Welcome to Chippendales, Yellowjackets, The Thicket, By Design -- as if she's artistically revived. We can only hope that real auteurs and casting directors have taken notice and are ready to hand her something major she can really tear into.
Uma Thurman in PULP FICTION
09 Uma Thurman -previously discussed
55 years old. 196 points. On 33% of your ballots. Most frequent rank on those ballots: #2 and #5. Highest ranked actress without a single #1 vote.
Breakthrough: Dangerous Liaisons (1988)
Only Oscar Nomination: Pulp Fiction (1994)
Closest She's Come Since?: Kill Bill Vol 2 (2004)
Career Haul: 1 Golden Globe
Next Up: Red, White, and Royal Wedding (2026)
It remains a shame that Uma Thurman didn't collect any golden idols for her Kill Bill performance, her best.
Imelda Staunton as VERA DRAKE
08 Imelda Staunton
70 years old. 263 points. Placed on 41% of your ballots. Most frequent rank on those ballots: #2 and #5
Breakthrough: Desperado (1995)
Only Oscar Nomination: Vera Drake (2004)
Closest She's Come Since?: N/A
Career Haul: 5 Olivier Awards. 2 BIFAS. 1 BAFTA. 1 EFA. 1 NSFC. 1 SAG ACTOR. 1 Volpi Cup. (many of those for Vera Drake)
Recent Highlight: Hello Dolly on stage (2024) winning her 5th Olivier Award
Up Next: Unknown
Staunton was curiously absent from the Team Experience top ten but our readers have rectified that matter. Who doesn't want to see Vera Drake / Delores Umbridge herself return to the Academy spotlight? Staunton might not have an Oscar comeback (it only happens to the very lucky and high profile filmmakers no longer seem interested) but we're pleased as punch that she's still collecting other kinds of trophies and nominations. In the twenty-two years since her Oscar nomination for 2004's Vera Drake she's been up for four more BAFTAs, two Emmys, two Golden Globes, two SAG Actor Cast Awards, won the British Independent Film Award (Pride), and most impressively won her third, fourth, and fifth Olivier Award on the West End -- all in Best Actress in a Musical -- for Sweeney Todd, Gypsy, and Hello Dolly respectively. Yours truly only had the pleasure of seeing her on stage once but she remains the best "Mama Rose" I've ever seen on stage in Gypsy; that's saying quite a lot given the titanic talents that have played the role in my lifetime.
KST in THE ENGLISH PATIENT
07 Kristin Scott Thomas - previously discussed
65 years old. 272 points. Placed on 35.7% of your ballots. Most frequent rank on those ballots: #3 and #4
Breakthrough: Four Weddings and a Funeral (1994)

Recent Highlight: Fleabag season 2 (2019)

04 Kathleen Turner - previously discussed at length

Kathleen, my queen!
- AdamIt ain't happening and it hurts to even think about it.
-Tom
Breakthrough: Body Heat (1981)
Only Oscar Nomination: Peggy Sue Got Married (1986)
Closest She's Come Since?: War of the Roses (1989)
Career Haul: 2 Golden Globe Awards. 1 LAFCA. 1 NBR... and though she didn't win she also scored 2 Tony nominations which we're mentioning because she's amazing on stage, too.
Up Next: a short film Joan's Teeth (2026)
With the exception of possibly Cameron Diaz in the late 90s early 00s, we can't think of a single actress in our lifetime who has had as popular a run with audiences in major films and who worked with hugely acclaimed filmmakers and who chalked up multiple awards nominations semi-frequently who the Academy just refused to fall in love with. It will remain forever strange to this Gen X'er who grew up absolutely obsessed with the one and only Kathleen Turner.
Patricia Clarkson in PIECES OF APRIL
03 Patricia Clarkson - previously discussed
66 years old. 326 points. On 50.9% of your ballots. Most frequent rank on those ballots: #3
Breakthrough: High Art (1998)
Only Oscar Nomination: Pieces of April (2003)
Closest She's Come Since?: Far From Heaven (2002)
Career Haul: 3 Emmys. 1 Golden Globe. 1 BIFA. 1 Critics Choice Award. 1 NBR. 1 NYFCC. 1 Sundance Special Jury Prize.
Recent Highlight: Sharp Objects (2019)
Up Next: Martin Scorsese's What Happens At Night (2027) with Leonardo DiCaprio and Jennifer Lawrence.
Let's hope Scorsese has a great part for Clarkson. Her last Scorsese (Shutter Island) was such a teeny exposition-filled role.
Alfre Woodward in CROSS CREEK
02 Alfre Woodard - previously discussed at length
73 years old. 467 points. On 61.6% of your ballots. Most frequent rank on those ballots: #1
Still gutted about the Clemency snub for the performance of the year, in my humble opinion. Alfre’s amazing run in the 90s deserves more recognition. Aside from some stellar TV work, I’d classify her turns in Passion Fish, Crooklyn, Heart and Souls, Grand Canyon and maybe even How to Make an American Quilt as worthy of more praise.-Jamie
Breakthrough and Only Oscar Nomination: Cross Creek (1983)
Closest She's Come Since?: Passionfish (1992)
Recent Highlight: Clemency (2019)
Career Haul: 9 NAACP Image Awards. 4 Emmys. 2 CableAce Awards. 1 Golden Globe.
Up Next: A thriller Viral (2026), the Neflix series The Boroughs (2026), and a drama The Thing That Hurts (2027?) from French director Arnaud Desplechin
Toni Collette in THE SIXTH SENSE
01 Toni Collette - previously discussed at length
53 years old. 632 points. On 70.5% of your ballots. Most frequent rank on those ballots: #1
Let's be honest, Toni Collette should have multiple nominations and at least ONE win by now...
- Elias
Breakthrough: Muriel's Wedding (1995...in the US)
Only Oscar Nomination: The Sixth Sense (1999)
Underappreciated Genius: Velvet Goldmine (1998)
Closest She's Come Since?: About a Boy (2003) or Hereditary (2018)
Career Haul: Hereditary (2018) and/or Velvet Goldmine (1998)
Up Next: Two in 2026: Fangs, a comic thriller with Joel Edgerton and the comedy The Roots Manoeuvre with Jessica Henning.
TRIVIA & STATS
• RUNNERS UP? Landing in the top ten required hitting at least 30% of the ballots. Barbara Hershey (#13) came closest in terms of "almost" hitting 30% but it was Stockard Channing on just under 26% of ballots that came closest as spoiler to the top ten, landing in the 11th spot.
• TOP FIVE TWINNED. The top five from our readers and the top five for our writers -- despite voting simultaneously and therefore no chance of influencing each other -- were like fraternal twins who look identical; Not quite mirrors...but close. The telling difference was that Barbara Hershey (#5 with our team) was lesser popular with readers while Patricia Clarkson (#6 with our team) lept a few spaces forward, essentially taking Hershey's place from our first shared list. As for the top two, While the order was reversed among our Team Experience ballots and yours, in both cases Toni Collette and Alfre Woodard were far and away the most beloved queens of Desired Golden Comebacks. They have both been deemed Egregiously Overdue for Oscar Love given the consistency of their brilliance and longevity of their careers. Given this outpouring of love, it's easy to imagine many Academy members feel a similar affection. Maybe they'll win if they ever have the good fortune of being nominated a second time.
• YOUNGEST. Chloe Sevigny, is the youngest actress who qualified for the list given the criteria set (only nominated once twenty or more years ago, over 50, and still Oscarless). Sevigny, always youthful in spirit, is currently 51. The second youngest actress to qualify was Juliette Lewis, nominated for 1991's Cape Fear when she was 18 (playing a 15 year-old). She is currently 52.
• OLDEST. The earliest nominated living actress to be eligible (given the poll question's criteria) is Ann Blyth who played Joan Crawford's spoiled teenage daughter "Veda" in Mildred Pierce (1945). She was only 17 when she was nominated. At this writing she is still alive and will be turning 98 in August. She is not, however, the oldest woman who qualified for the list. Nancy Olson (Sunset Blvd, 1950) is also still alive and turns 98 one month earlier this July. BUT the oldest living actress who qualified for this list is actually the great Rosemary Harris (Tom & Viv, 1994) who is turning 99 later this fall. Blyth and Olson are long-retired but Harris, who stopped working regularly about ten years ago, popped up in a movie just two years ago (Oscar Wilde About America).
• NOT QUITE ELIGIBLE. Among living one-time acting nominees from twenty or more years ago who lost, only five women did not qualify for this list given the criteria: Oprah Winfrey (The Color Purple, 1985) was eliminated due to her Honorary Oscar (i.e. she's not Oscarless) and Christine Lahti (Swing Shift, 1984) who I accidentally included (sorry) was on the original eligibility list but I forgot that she had an Oscar for Best Live Action Short Film so she was pulled at the last minute from the ballots. She did receive some votes but would not quite have made the top 26. Three more women did not qualify for the list due to the "50 or older" threshhold: Abigail Breslin (Little Miss Sunshine, 2006), Keisha Castle-Hughes (Whale Rider,2003) and Rinko Kikuchi (Babel, 2026) are 29, 36, and 45, respectively at this writing, despite their nominations being twenty or more years ago. Will any of them have an Oscar comeback? There's still time. Isn't it wildly delicious and unexpected fun that Kikuchi has a festival hit this very year (Ha-Chan Shake Your Booty) for which she's winning great reviews?
• LACKING NUMBER ONES. Obviously the majority of the 75 eligible women did not receive #1 placements on any ballot. For one thing Toni Collette (#1) and Alfre Woodard (#2) together hogged 43% of those rankings! But the only actresses to make your collective top ten list without ANY #1 placements on the ballots were Juliette Lewis and Uma Thurman. While Thurman's votes were fairly evenly spread out between #2 and #10 placements, curiously Juliette Lewis was a super popular #5 choice. What does that mean? Who knows!
• WHERE IS SHE? Mare Winningham is the only actress who made the Team Experience top ten who did not place on the Reader Ranking Top 26. She came in 31st and landed on only 8.9% of your ballots. Have y'all not seen Georgia ???
• THE SNUBBED. Only four eligible women received no votes in the poll. They were ballerina Leslie Brown (The Turning Point), French actress Marie Christine Barrault (Cousin Cousine) who is actually in one of the Cannes competition films this year!, Lynn Carlin (Faces) and Lindsay Crouse (Places in the Heart). Two of those women didn't stick with acting which could explain their absence. When I was a kid in the early 80s who wasn't yet seeing adult films I sometimes confused Lindsay Crouse with Amy Madigan which... ouch in retrospect for Crouse.
AND HERE ARE THE TOP FIVE FROM EACH "RUNG" OF THE BALLOT FROM YOUR VOTES
Most #1 placements
- Toni Collette (26.8% of ballots placed her first)
- Alfre Woodard (17%)
- Kathleen Turner (7.1%)
- Lily Tomlin (5.4%)
- (tie) Stockard Channing & Marianne Jean Baptiste (4.5% each)
Twenty-seven more cheers for Toni Collette. That's quite a percentage. Does this mean she'll win an Oscar in 2027 for her work in 2026 or in 2028 for her work in 2027? We will keep delusional dreaming! It's interesting that Stockard Channing came in 5th for #1 votes but still missed the top ten.
Most #2 placements
- Toni Collette (12.5% of ballots placed her second)
- Imelda Staunton (7.1%)
- Alfre Woodard (5.4%)

- (tie) Catherine Deneuve & Juliette Lewis
- (tie) Kathleen Turner & Lily Tomlin
Most #8 placements
- Patricia Clarkson (6.3% of all ballots placed Patty eighth)
- (tie) Carol Kane & Chloe Sevigny (5.4% each)
- (tie) Imelda Staunton & Rosie Perez (4.5% each)
Most #9 placements
- Patricia Clarkson
- (tie) Alfre Woodard & Stockard Channing
Most #10 placements
- Rosie Perez (5.4% of all ballots placed Rosie tenth)
- (tie) Barbara Hershey & Lesley Ann Warren & Sharon Stone & Uma Thurman (4.5% each)
Once you reached the last slot, the votes becomes truly scattered. In the end 97.3% of all eligible women landed on a ballot somewhere!
THAT'S A WRAP! We hope you enjoyed this two-week long experiment in wishful thinking.
