The Academy Awards’ supporting actress race is quietly approaching that kind of tipping point. With Teyana Taylor and Wunmi Mosaku both in contention, the Oscars could soon deliver something that has never happened before: three Black women winning the same acting category consecutively. If Taylor wins for “One Battle After Another,” or Mosaku wins for “Sinners,” it would mark the first time in the Academy’s 98-year history that Black women have won best supporting actress three years in a row. They would follow the triumphs of Da’Vine Joy Randolph for “The Holdovers” and Afro-Latina Zoe Saldaña for “Emilia Pérez.”
In the context of Oscar history, it would carry enormous weight, since no Black actresses have ever won three consecutive years — in the same category — at any major entertainment ceremony, including the Emmys and Tonys.
