Russell Crowe could be on track to getting his first Oscar nomination in over 20 years!
The 61-year-old actor is getting some early Oscar buzz after the premiere of his movie Nuremberg during the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival on Sunday (September 7) in Toronto, Canada.
Russell, who walked the red carpet with girlfriend Britney Theriot, 33, was also joined by co-stars Rami Malek, Leo Woodall, John Slattery, Michael Shannon, Richard E. Grant, and Wolfgang Cerny, as well as writer and director James Vanderbilt.
Britney was once a cheerleader for the New Orleans Saints and she first met Russell in 2013 on the set of Broken City, but they weren’t linked as a couple until 2020.
We might be seeing a lot of them on the red carpet in the coming months if Russell‘s Oscar campaign continues. He previously received three consecutive Best Actor nominations from 2000 to 2002 for his movies The Insider, Gladiator, and A Beautiful Mind. He won for Gladiator.
Deadline says that in Nuremberg, Russell is “truly immersing himself in one of his best, if most difficult, roles as the duplicitous Goring.”
Here is the synopsis: “The Allies, led by the unyielding chief prosecutor, Robert H. Jackson (Shannon), have the task of ensuring the Nazi regime answers for the unveiled horrors of the Holocaust while a US Army psychiatrist (Malek) is locked in a dramatic psychological duel with former Reichsmarschall Herman Göring (Crowe).”
The movie will be released in theaters on November 7.
