It is the first Oscar nomination for the 72-year-old daughter of Ingrid Bergman and Roberto Rossellini.

Rossellini, who was also nominated for a Golden Globe for her nun's role, will be up against Monica Barbaro (Joan Baez in A Complete Unknown), Ariana Grande (Wicked), Felicity Jones (The Brutalist) and Zoe Saldana (Emilia Perez) in the Oscar on Sunday, March 23.
